Hello Every One I am Siddharth.Congratulations to all who have got admits and goy scholarships as well. I am from India and am thinking of applying to the school in Round 2 but if I don't receive scholarships it will of no use since it would not be possible to self finance.Hence I would like to know that for those receiving scholarships is it covering a substantial part of the tution fees.The school site mentions that it ranges from 2000-10,000 $ ,which is quite low compared to other schools I think and doesn't cover much of the tuition fees. Thanks, Siddharth

Does anyone know McCombs' policy for deferring acceptance by one year? I came across the below in a blog post, but it's from 2007 so wanted to see if this was still the case... "UT Austin’s McCombs School of Business stands out with their “no questions asked one year deferral policy”. The applicant must email a letter stating the intent and then pay the deposit. When the application is posted the following year the applicant fills it out and pays the application fee to be automatically be admitted."

Submitted my application for Round 2 today. Applying to the Advertising/MBA dual-degree program. For Rd 1 applicants, how soon did you know about interview invites? Or were they dispersed throughout the round?

Not Yet..still hoping for that!

Military veteran applicants and soon-to-be students, did you know that McCombs has an Armed Forces Alumni Association with anywhere from 25-35 members each school year? If you have any questions about transitioning, applying or anything else, "Like" the FB page so that you can follow along and ask any questions: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Mccombs- ... 4565266512

Hello, As a member of the Admissions committee, I would suggest clearing your cache and/or opening the application in a new browser. If after you do both you are still having issues, please email a screenshot of the problem to TexasMBA@mccombs.utexas.edu .

Orientation begins in early August, with optional bootcamp taking place the last week of July. It is recommended you arrive to Austin no later than early-mid July to give yourself time to settle in before the program starts. Hope this is helfpul!

Apologies on the tardiness of this response and for this issue in general, but you should have received an answer. If you still have not, please email TexasMBA@mccombs.utexas.edu and let them know.
