University of Michigan (2022-2023)

[tall folio]

I emailed my regional AO and he j gave very vague answers as one would expect

[hard ice]

U can I asked a UIUC AO over the phone why I got rejected

[tall folio]

for UMich as well?

[hard ice]

No

[tall folio]

Does that apply for all public unis? J phone the office

oo

[hard ice]

I asked cause I was appealing UIUC

[tall folio]

Did they grant the appeal?

a few of my friends are appealing ucla/berkeley

[indigo gyro]

Yeah she said they noted how I had mostly A’s, strong leadership, “beautifully written” essays, and a strong interest in umich

[hard ice]

Then what went wrong?

[indigo gyro]

Idk

Probably got crowded out

[river vessel]

Did umich publish acceptance rate?

[lethal flicker]

committed!!! ^-^

[humble reef]

ayyyyyy

[random minnow]

For this year no for past yes

[hard ice]

Apparently this person got off UMich waitlist???

[indigo gyro]

I guess the waitlist is starting to move

[lethal flicker]

Imagine the rollercoaster that is defer to wl to accept

[hard ice]

That just sounds like the ultimate blue ball to me

[river vessel]

I feel bad cause kids are getting off wisco waitlist with 2 days before the deadline

[hard ice]

Why does it make u feel bad?

[lethal flicker]

Why? Usually people get off later. Better to get off before you put down a deposit

[random minnow]

Exactly

[river vessel]

Because they already committed elsewhere

Like my friend was fully set on IU but now has 2 days to decide

[lethal flicker]

Oh that is unfortunate

[lethal flicker]

I think a lot of waitlist acceptances come in a similar time crunch but that is difficult

[hard ice]

I thought waitlist acceptances give a week

Disregarding May 1st deadline

Nvm

UMich 48 hrs

That’s tuff

[hard ice]

Wait ur friend got off UMich waitlist?

[high flax]

i will be taking revenge on this school

[indigo gyro]

I just called admissions they said they won’t release waitlist decisions until mid June and it’ll be all at once

[hard ice]

OP on the power just confirmed they got off waitlist

So idk

Maybe mid June will be final decision

[indigo gyro]

Interesting

[hard ice]

Interesting indeed

AOs are a bunch of liars

They’re prob trickling in the decisions as they need to fill certain programs

[tribal umbra]

or certain diversity

[hard ice]

That too

[old dove]

Waitlist moving?????

[inner spade]

for the 70 people who get off

Applicants who accepted our waitlist offer:
Fall 2019: 39%, or 5,085 applicants
Fall 2020: 48%, or 10,080 applicants
Fall 2021: 73%, or 13,149 applicants
Fall 2022: 72%, or 15,076 applicants

Applicants who were admitted from the waitlist:
Fall 2019: 2%, or 106 applicants
Fall 2020: 13%, or 1,289 applicants
Fall 2021: 0.5%, or 69 applicants
Fall 2022: 0.5%, or 77 applicants

putting 15k people on a waitlist to accept 70 is wild

[old dove]

Praying rn for myself

[tribal umbra]

yeah, do they really read all 15k applications again to accept 70?

[hard ice]

I agree

[river vessel]

No wisco

[hard ice]

Ohhh

I didn’t read properly

[indigo gyro]

Anyone know the cs selection acceptance rate

[river vessel]

We don’t even know real rate 😭

[random minnow]

I doubt they re read them. I think it’s truly random considering there is no LOCI.

Maybe they consider diversity and open spots tho

[oblique vortex]

they will probably just read based on which demographic needs more people

[hard ice]

Nah they choose ppl based on the requirements they need to fill like diversity, a certain major/school, etc

[fluid swift]

waitlists are usually there for them to satisfy demographics

[hard ice]

And that

[cobalt wedge]

waitlists decision out when

[random minnow]

When is housing application due? Is it today or May 5

Because I have not received the app form yet

[fluid swift]

may 5

[random minnow]

Thanks. I will email them just to see what the hold up is

[fluid swift]

np!

[compact creek]

yooo my state flagship

[humble reef]

when did u commit? and whatever they say lmk pls

[random minnow]

April 11 I believe

[humble reef]

o dangg I probably won't get mine in time then

[quartz harbor]

email them

it’s quick to do

don’t risk not getting housing because of that

[indigo gyro]

Any new waitlist updates?

[wet tapir]

Anyone know what the condition of admission for umich is

I take A-Levels btw

I heard it's fine as long as I don't get a D

is that true?

[fluid swift]

there’s no formal conditions but if your grades drop too much they’ll email asking for an explanation

[wet tapir]

how much is too much

[fluid swift]

im not that familar with a-levels honestly but try not to drop from your predicted in every single subject

[wet tapir]

oh god

I'm kinda worried cuz my predicted is pretty high and A-Levels are tough as hell

I am expecting like at least CBAA

[fluid swift]

yeah dw im tryna maintain my ib predicted 😭

[wet tapir]

from A*AAA predicted

lets hope that they don't revoke the offer for getting a C

cuz its says AP students can get 2 C's and get away with it

[lethal flicker]

Yeah I think UMich has guidelines on the website

Which is honestly rly bestie of them

[waxen rampart]

Sup

[wet tapir]

Can I get the link pls

[tranquil imp]

does any1 know how to find roommates without using the housing application search engine

[cosmic plinth]

maybe umich disc server

[lethal flicker]

^^that would be how to do it

[humble reef]

I managed to get it tdy without asking lmao

[indigo gyro]

Any waitlist movement

[inner spade]

They let a couple off last week

mich hardly takes anyone tho

[old dove]

[random minnow]

[lethal flicker]

Nope

[tight horizon]

[indigo gyro]

There was someone on Reddit who did like 2 weeks ago

[wet cave]

[topaz thicket]

thug shaker

[fickle cloak]

💀 i will come off as a red flag immediately. already at a disadvantage doing cs

[topaz thicket]

so nothing to lose

😎

[tight horizon]

Anyone know some one that got off the waitlist?

[honest maple]

HI EVERYONE I GOT OFF THE WAITLIST

I GOT ADMITTED TO START DURING THE SUMMER TERM

✋🏼😧

very confused tho cuz my enrollment connect hasn’t updated or anything so like what’s going on here but it’s from a umich email

[lethal flicker]

Wooooo

Welcome to the Victors’ side!!! GOOO BLUE 💙💛💙💛

[tribal umbra]

congratulations, are you in-state or out-of-state? major?

[fickle cloak]

hi, no wonder i thought ur pfp seemed familiar lol

[fickle cloak]

W welcome to the Big House!

[tribal umbra]

was there a place in the application or waitlist form to indicate interest for summer term, or they randomly offer students to start in summer term?

[fickle cloak]

no it's something they offer if they want someone to take summer classes to like adapt the college level classes. not sure if i'm explaining it right but something like that

[honest maple]

in-state, no specific major but definitely something in earth/environment and space sciences

[honest maple]

no, they offered me the summer term because of space. i applied EA back in october for fall 2023

[fickle cloak]

hmm interesting. are you going?

[honest maple]

and thank you for all the congrats!!! 😭 🫶

not sure. don't flame me but i committed to michigan state and i've kinda already planned EVERYTHING since i convinced myself i wasn't gonna get off the waitlist. i need to meet w my counselor asap on monday

they gave me basically no info on what to expect in the summer term

besides that i'd be choosing my fall term classes when i also choose my summer ones

[tribal umbra]

interesting.. why'd they offer summer though? can't you skip summer and start in fall?

its like end of may, summer semester would start soon i guess?

[honest maple]

starts june 28 iirc and i'm not 100% sure but i think my app was a little weaker than the average michigan student (for reference, i already said that i'm in-state, but i also only took 5 APs, applied test optional, and literally only had 5 extracurriculars listed). they probably want give someone like me the opportunity to acclimate to college life in a less stressful environment

[lethal flicker]

Wdym my pfp was familiar

[fickle cloak]

from um 27 server lol

[lethal flicker]

Ahhh lol

[topaz thicket]

"only 5 aps, only 5 ecs"

i dont think thats only

💀

i had less than 5 ecs too and not even good ones

[honest maple]

i mean it's not that many compared to how many my school offers 😭

i think we offer around 20 but im not sure

[old dove]

Wait so people are getting off??

[worthy orbit]

did you send a loci?

[honest maple]

i guess so? someone from my area but a different school got the same email/offer for summer admission

[honest maple]

i just did the eoci they recommended back in january/february. didn’t send anything after that

[tribal umbra]

michigan is probably rounding up the class of 2027 by adding more in-state

[topaz thicket]

tragic

no more oos

[honest maple]

maybe, we're also minorities in an affluent area though so that's probably a factor

[dry vapor]

I somehow got off the waitlist, but it’s too expensive for me to actually attend (I’m OOS and have no financial aid 😭)

[honest maple]

are you a summer admit too?

[dry vapor]

No I got accepted for this fall

[honest maple]

inch resting

[tribal umbra]

cool.. which state/major? which uni are you planning then?

[tribal umbra]

ah that makes sense.. could asians be considered minority? 🙂

[honest maple]

i mean, i’m asian so i guess so lol

[late helm]

I recently got accepted off the waitlist, but just declined it, so hopefully someone else will get off the waitlist soon.

[dry vapor]

From Cali, and was planning on doing compsci/CogSci. I’m committed to UCSD rn.

[tight horizon]

Did any international student get off the waitlist or not yet?

[fickle cloak]
