I don’t know who said it originally, but it’s true.
I saw a report that stated:
UT received 38,483 applications by the early action deadline of Nov. 1, a 43.2% increase representing 11,601 more early action applications than in 2021. According to the Office of Enrollment Management, the university received a total of 36,290 applications in 2022.
I’m stationed at Fort Hood, so I get down your way every so often. Hope your area dealt well with the recent cold snap!
