Did you fill out the PA petition form? If not, you can fill that out to try and get organic to be substituted. The form is right on their website!

Chiller876 6 Posted October 2 If this helps...I received an email saying I was missing a prerequisite (Bio2) they asked me to provide further information. I know they have mentioned this particular class cannot be substituted so the fact that they’re inquiring makes me think if you’re missing something they will follow up.

paprep0829 1 Posted October 2 jec0628 Just an FYI. The petition form was due on 9/1. Mine was rejected because I did not submit by then, but I didn't even know I was missing anything until after 9/1. My fault for not being more vigilant in my application. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hedgehog25 0 Posted October 3 Did everyone else who applied to this school receive an email notification about their application being received, in the process of being verified, etc.? The reason I ask is because I applied (and my application verified by CASPA) prior to the application deadline, but I haven't received any communication at all from the school, so I'm not sure if that's a bad sign...

Yes, I received an email a couple days after applying that they received my application and it had been verified. Check your spam mail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmmm, I just checked my spam folder but there's nothing in there from the program. I hope that doesn't mean that my application was considered incomplete/ineligible...

DOCRAH 20 Posted October 3 Yeah I received a email saying that my app was verified as well, this was back in June though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hedgehog25 0 Posted October 3 Does anyone know if there's an admissions officer to contact for matters related to our application? Or should we just call the Office of Graduate and Continuing Studies and go from there? (I see that there are several admissions counselors listed on the OGCS's website) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DOCRAH 20 Posted October 3 (edited) I'd probably go with either this number: Contact the Office of Graduate and Continuing Studies(813) 258-7409 or this one Graduate Students (Domestic and International) Contact Graduate Admissions Phone: (813) 253-6249 Fax: (813) 258-7451 Email: grad@ut.edu Hopefully that is a direct line to someone so you can get to the bottom of this b/c you applied on time and received an email from CASPA saying that the application and the payment went through right?

Reeannuh 19 Posted October 4 @Hedgehog25 yeah... they rec’d my application June 8th and they sent a standardized email June 12th that looks like this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jlthornt 45 Posted October 4 Not to beat a dead horse, but did you guys hear back from the program specifically after you submitted your applications?Yes. I submitted 5/31 and was verified 6/23. Received an email from UTampa 6/24 indicating they had received my verified application and said they would review my application “over the coming months”.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jlthornt 45 Posted October 8 Does anyone else find it a bit daunting that they only interview 120 people? I did not know that! I wonder how many apply...Hmm....I’m not sure how many they interviewed last year. Program typically interview 3x the seats offered. I interviewed at another program with 40 seats available and 120 total were interviewed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
