The Attorney General of the State of Texas ruled several years ago that standardized test scores cannot be used as the sole basis for denying an applicant admission to a state-supported college or university. Thus, there are no "required" SAT scores for admission to UT-Austin. Admissions decisions are relative. That is, it depends entirely upon the applicant pool at the time. UT-Austin has a set number of new students (freshmen and transfers) that they admit each year. Presuming that they operate like most other universities, a number of factors are considered when making admission decisions - standardized test scores (SAT or ACT), high school and/or junior college GPA, essay quality (content, style, grammar), high school class rank, recommendations, applicants' experiences (participation in extracurricular activities, volunteer service, leadership activities, etc.) and, perhaps, personal interview results. Remember, that ALL state-supported colleges and universities in Texas are required by law to admit any applicant who graduates in the top 10% of his or her class in high school.
