I also got that email, but when I login, my application status says "in review." Posted from my mobile device

where do you see this? i can't even find "in review" in my profile

If you go to the following link: https://utdirect.utexas.edu/apps/adm/mystatus/ You should be able to log in and see your status. This link was included in an email I received right after I submitted my application.

I got that one as well... Don't know what to make of it.... BTW the link given in the mail takes me to the McCombs application portal and not the UT application portal.... Would be awesome if it were an invitation although the chances of that are bleak... OR it could also mean that it's a waitlist...

Thank You doggdetroit. Even I received the mail with a link that led to the application status page with the checklist, and wasn't able to find any decision there. My decision status on the link you provided says 'In Review'. Did you mail them back or are you waiting for the status to update?

Based on the recent threads, I'm curious to know - for those of you who received the email with the link to check your status - did you'll interview with McCombs? Posted from my mobile device

FYI - I received a phone call acceptance last week and my status still shows in review too. No emails received yet either. They mentioned over the phone that I would receive more info on the 20th. So don't lose hope. I interviewed fairly early but received my call on Friday while others received them as early as Tuesday. The admissions office is a normal office and things come up. They may not have gotten around to calling you yet. Good luck! Posted from my mobile device

Yup, I am in the same boat. Besides the admitted call from Brodie, I have not received an email or seen a status change on the website. I am hoping to get more information by the end of this week!

@kana162 No I did not receive a call, just a mail saying a decision has been released. I have no way to check what that decision is however, because the link in the mail leads to the application checklist and in the other link shared in a previous post , my decision status is 'In Review'.
