Decision Ready

Updated on: September 1, 2021

Is Austin College one of your top choices? Ready to know if you’re “in”?

Through Austin College’s Decision Ready timeline you can receive your admission and scholarship decision by November 15. Follow these easy steps by November 1 to be eligible:

  • Visit Austin College or schedule an admission interview during the week, Monday – Friday.
  • Submit your application 
  • Complete your application by submitting all required materials, you can track the status of items received in your Student Hub portal.

That’s it! Complete these steps by November 1 to get your admission and scholarship decision by November 15.

Decision Ready is a non-binding admission decision. You and your family are encouraged to consider your financial aid package and work with your admission counselor to review all the advantages of Austin College.

Need more reasons to be Decision Ready?

  1. You’ll be first in line for financial aid. The Financial Aid Office will start to assemble your award package using your FAFSA data. Don’t forget to send AC your FAFSA using code #003543.
  2. You’ll be able to share the news with family and friends at Thanksgiving—and don’t forget to use #RooNation on social media.
  3. You can start planning sooner for your first year in college.

Applications considered for Decision Ready will be reviewed holistically. That means we will evaluate all of the parts of your application – not just one piece. Your academic achievements are an important part of determining if you are prepared for Austin College academics, but we want to see other achievements and talents, too. We want to learn about your extracurricular or volunteer activities, your involvement with a job or faith community, and the ideas and interests that make you who you are. All of these elements will speak to what you will bring to Austin College.

Academic and Application Requirements

Students should be in good academic standing and taking classes that are challenging. Your transcript should include a nice distribution of courses, in true liberal arts style.

We expect the application, recommendations from counselors and teachers, your admission essay, and an interview with a member of our Admission staff to give us the rest of the story about who you are and what you value.

ACT/SAT Policy

Due to ongoing standardized testing disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic we encourage students to apply test-optional. We do not encourage a student to risk their health and safety in order to take the SAT or ACT for admission or scholarship consideration.
