sneha3570 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Hello everyone, I'm Sneha Mathew & I received my admissions offer in no less than two days after my interview. Tbh, I felt over prepared for my interview (thanks to interview prep book) so it felt more like a conversation to me. I felt comfortable in sharing my story to them. And I fell in love with how warm and welcoming this school/ faculty was! Just be yourself during the interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdandj Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I noticed that the last set of interviewees got acceptance letters soon after their interview. Does anyone know how fast Texas Tech accepts/rejects after the interviews. Do they wait a long time in some cases or is it a quick turnaround. Also congratulations to all those accepted so far!

Quite a bit of us were notified within 24hrs. So I am sure that if you impress them you should be able to find out very soon thereafter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbingold Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Quite a bit of us were notified within 24hrs. So I am sure that if you impress them you should be able to find out very soon thereafter. That being said, bdandj, I asked a handful of the first year students at my interview when they had heard back and got extremely varied answers! So if you do not hear back in the first 24 hours, do not fret! I believe it would be acceptable to ask the admissions committee as well when you could expect to hear back. Personally, I didn't ask, but I think it would be appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbingold Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Just so you guys know, I had about 7 hours to kill after my interview before my flight back to Arizona and went to look at apartments to save a trip if I did get accepted. Turns out this was a great decision because I have claimed my seat and now know where I will be living!!! Anatole on Briarwood is a brand new complex, they are currently still in the process of building it. It's about 10 minutes away from campus, if that. It's an incredible complex, upgraded, pool, 24 hour fitness center, gated community! Lots of amenities. Pricy, but they all are! I chose to do a one bedroom, but it would be fun if a handful of us lived in the same complex! If you are interested, check it out! :) Their site doesn't have pictures yet because like I said it is brand new, but I assure you it is absolutely beautiful! Very modern with upgraded units (EVERY unit is upgraded). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdandj Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Thank you for the info JoshTru and tbingold! I had hoped to hear something like that as some admissions comittees make you wait so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kabolton Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I received an interview for January 8th! For anyone who has already been through the interview process, can you tell us how many students are there being interviewed on the same day?

I've been around for most of the interviews and they are interviewing between 20-30 people I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
am2014 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I have an interview on January the 8th! Very excited!! Does anyone know of a close, affordable, and inexpensive (and not too shabby) hotel to stay in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stayed at Americas Best Value Inn Midland- Relatively cheap and only about a 10 minute drive from campus! Not too shabby of a hotel either :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vf88 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I have an interview on January the 8th! Very excited!! Does anyone know of a close, affordable, and inexpensive (and not too shabby) hotel to stay in? someone recommended the Travelodge: http://www.travelodge.com/hotels/texas/midland/travelodge-midland-tx/hotel-overview that person got a room for $80, but I called this past saturday and the cheapest they have is a single room for about $102 after taxes. There is also the Midland Inn: 3302 W Front St, Midland, TX 79701 (432) 689-6886 I called and the lady said they had a room for i think $55, but you can't reserve in advance and they may not have a room on my interview date, so I booked a room at.. Advantage Inn 804 Interstate 20 Frontage Rd, Big Spring, TX 79720 for $78 after taxes. They are 43 miles away from the interview site though. I'll call the Midland Inn when I leave Dallas on Wednesday and see if they have any rooms first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lh9315 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Hi everyone! I just got my interview invitation for the 15th of January! I'm so happy! I'm from Houston and was wondering what would be the best way to go up there? Should I drive or fly? Thank you in advance :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Nicole Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I'm from Houston too! The drive is roughly 7- 8 hrs, and can be extremely exhausting. I personally flew in for my interview the evening before and was able to get a good night's rest and was so relaxed the morning of my interview.

liz Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 Hi, I was accepted this year thank goodness. But last year's experience consisted of a alternate letter within a week from the interview (snail mail, no email).. So I'm thinking whether automatically accepted or not they notify interviewers quickly so it's convenient if planning is in order. Best of luck to you! I noticed that the last set of interviewees got acceptance letters soon after their interview. Does anyone know how fast Texas Tech accepts/rejects after the interviews. Do they wait a long time in some cases or is it a quick turnaround. Also congratulations to all those accepted so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
