University of Michigan (2023-2024)

[left gyro]

were you deferred ea?

[obtuse wagon]

i wasnt dffered from here but theyre still asking for a loci if i want to should i send one?

[hardy lichen]

definitely!

[hardy lichen]

It could boost your chances

[obtuse wagon]

alright then

[manic verge]

do u have any updates

if not dont send

[obtuse wagon]

a lil late ❤️ LOLLL

its aight

[mighty laurel]

No Im RD

[worn topaz]

I applied literally 7 days ago why they asking me for this

[manic verge]

they put it on there for eveyobe

if u dont have significant updates no point in doing it

[manic verge]

does michigan look at mid year grades

for rd applicants

my counselor sent it anyway

[glad sleet]

God I hope not

[harsh elbow]

its optional

[harsh elbow]

yeah my counselor sends each students automatically to every college

its optional so if they have it they have it if they don't they dont

[manic verge]

but on my portal it says that, the loci form is the only way they'll accept new information

[harsh elbow]

not sure, but probably like new information from you

and the midyear doesnt count

[manic verge]

oh ok, im fucked then

ggs

[harsh elbow]

"If you would like to submit additional information, our preference is to receive only the ECI form, grade updates, or any specifically requested information. Anything outside of this will not impact your final decision."

[steep wren]

yeah like 6 places higher

[paper marsh]

where did it say this

[undone token]

didnt apply for cs, but during my admissions cycle, i got into grainger and umich coe both (before umich separated admissions to cs from coe). chose umich bc the ranking is rlly negligible once ur that high up and i valued the student life and accessibility of ann arbor opposed to urbana champaign

more things to do in ann arbor

[steep wren]

yeah uiuc's location is kinda pushing me away...

thx for the input tho

[formal talon]

My counselor just sent my mid year report grades today, is that too late for them to consider

[rose slate]

In that case would you like to read my ross stuff before I submit in march!

[harsh elbow]

michigan doesnt even require them

[hardy lichen]

? For real

[harsh elbow]

website says not needed

but my counselor sent them anyways

[trim mango]

wait if midyear arent necessary then what do i put in LOCI

or is that where i put mid year if i want to

lOCI as in the box on the portal

[harsh elbow]

you write a loci, put any new updates

and midyear grades can still be sent

[pale veldt]

id def be willing to look at them, but i cant guarantee anything

[rose slate]

🫶🏼🫶🏼

Did you get consulting done or did u just write

[pale veldt]

if you mean if i ever paid someone to look over my writing, i never did that

[warm hollow]

does anyone know when the next wave of decisions is gonna come out

[pale veldt]

wdym next wave of decisions?

[hushed mortar]

prob means rd

[pale veldt]

well i mean it is a wave of decisions

its def a wave of all the decisions for rd

[warm hollow]

idk ive heard in the past they start accepting students who were deffered ea in February and march

every couple of weeks a "wave" of students get accepted

it might be only for in state applicants

im not really sure

[wintry valve]

no

[fluid solar]

ive heard that too

not confirmed tho

[cold cypress]

anyone know the decision date for Ross School undergrad?

[wet imp]

Tomorrow

[cold cypress]

Shi actually?

Did they give a time yet?

[wet imp]

Nah

Good luck homie

[lunar prawn]

typically 3pm est, cs selection also released at that time last week

[quaint zealot]

5pm est

[placid ruin]

Was there a first wave outside of early action?

[pale veldt]

5pm for ross

its always 5pm for ross

if you dont get a decision then sucks you gotta wait another month or 2

[pale veldt]

its 5pm

[lunar prawn]

oh yikes

best of luck to them anyways

[pale veldt]

yupp

[cold cypress]

why’s that?

[pale veldt]

bcos ross has 3 waves

one in february, one in march, one in april

[cold cypress]

Oh

[wet imp]

Manifesting rd acceptance for ego boost

[fluid solar]

same

[wet imp]

U got in early?

Or am i confusing h

You

What did u get into early

[fluid solar]

deferred from umich

got in Indiana and OSU early

[warm hollow]

5 pm tmrw or march 15

[warm hollow]

havent heard of one yet but usually first wave in previous years have come out around this time maybe a week or two later

[placid ruin]

I'm hoping its soon, they're super vague with their rd

[warm hollow]

yea idk they have been vague in general

decision being "postponed" make me think that they might actually do waves since they didnt give an exact date

[harsh elbow]

what is the out of state ea acceptance rate?

[exotic stone]

low

[hardy lichen]

17% for fall 2022

[harsh elbow]

theres like absolutely no way its that high

[fluid solar]

I'm guessing 8%

[hardy lichen]

i googled it

Idk where to find the official stats

[shadow basin]

Did anyone get an email for the honors program

[cold cypress]

Yea lsa

[shadow basin]

Engineering

?

[cold cypress]

I applied for data science

Sorry lol I have a tournament this morning over night so I had to get ready

[neat pawn]

does anyone know when fa comes out

[errant sky]

does it come out thru email

and do thye look at in state vs out of state for ross too bc i got in oos

[hexed osprey]

they came out?

[errant sky]

no not yet

i think its 5:00

[hexed osprey]

ah thats what i thought lol

[cold cypress]

So it’s 5

Damn I’m scared af

[foggy sand]

anyone get anything

[errant sky]

No

U?

[foggy sand]

nope

[weary lava]

engineering doesnt have its own honors program i think? its like a separate thing idk the details

[hexed osprey]

nope

it’s possible they haven’t sent out emails yet lol

they said after 5pm

[foggy sand]

so does it come into our portal as well?

[hexed osprey]

i’m not sure

they said by e-mail

so i don’t know

[rose slate]

Hey guys. I just applied as a transfer and I got rejected. I’m confused cuz I got a decision so soon. It was within 8 days of my submission. Has anyone heard of something like that happening?

[modest lion]

accepted to ross

18 minutes ago ish

[jade pilot]

same!!

[cold cypress]

They sent out the emails?

Do they send rejection emails

[golden terrace]

Didn’t get anything from Ross yet, is that bad?

[jade pilot]

[golden terrace]

Yah

[jade pilot]

[golden terrace]

Yep

[jade pilot]

BUT rejections come out at ANYT IME

[pale quarry]

[pale quarry]

i applied LAS fyi

or LSA

whatever it was

[dawn spoke]

OHH u didnt apply to ross

[pale quarry]

[dawn spoke]

ohhh OK lol ignore me haha

[pale quarry]

[pale veldt]

YOO new rossholes incoming?

[wet imp]

Where did u commit az

[pale quarry]

prolly either rutgers or purdue idk

(unless princeton comes through 😏)

[wet imp]

Why prefrosh if u didnt commit lmao

Did u grad hs

[steep wren]

rosshole... 💀

[pale quarry]

because i know im going to college, i got accepted somewhere

unless the prefrosh role is only for people who committed?

[wet imp]

Generally it is lol

[pale quarry]

oh lol

[wet imp]

No

Im trolling

I didnt apply mit

[modest lion]

to be split between college HAHA

[hexed osprey]

that’s awesome congratulations 🎉🎉

[paper marsh]

i dug into reddit and one wave for RD has been the last friday of feb

which would mean feb 23

3pm probably

[errant sky]

Does anyone know anyone who got rejected to Ross

Bc I applied ea to Mich and Ross and made Mich oos but didn’t get my Ross app back

[modest lion]

ee thank u haha

[hexed osprey]

there are still 2 more waves for their decision to come out on ross ea

they don’t release all of them on the first wave — only about 1/3

[pale veldt]

i do think they release most of it first wave as they accept the most people first wave (I THINK DONT QUOTE ME ON THIS)

i do know personalyl people who got in second and third wave though

[hardy lichen]

I got into Ross!!!

[exotic stone]

guys let’s quote her on that

[mighty laurel]

I heard Angie say

[hexed osprey]

angie, with 100% confidence, told me that

[warm hollow]

DAMN U GOT INTO WBB AND ROSS WHAT

[quaint creek]

i got deferred ea, does it matter when we submit the ECI form

[warm hollow]

same w me, i submitted mine asap just for some closure, but ive heard that it doesnt matter when u submit

[quaint creek]

cool

[warm hollow]

either way your app will be moved to the regular decision pool

[quaint creek]

mines half done but got exams now so ill probably be submitting it in march

[warm hollow]

yea same i kinda assumed it would probably be then

[quaint creek]

damn

[warm hollow]

yea thats tough, michigan is the only school ive submitted an loci to

but if you have free time try to start ur letter a little earlier

cuz march 8 deadline is kinda scary

i wudnt wait til last min

[quaint creek]

i have to do my gatech deferral form by feb 14

hardly any time

[warm hollow]

i got deferred from tech too

and im in state

LMFAO

[radiant hawk]

When do SMTD decisions release

[manic verge]

Is a yesterday LOCI submit too late for the first rd decision wave

[zinc pollen]

Hi, any UMich students I could ask a few questions to? Preferably in CS/ Engineering.

[warm hollow]

this but without the package

[wet thistle]

For Umich's LOCI, do you have to do anything special? Or is it like a normal LOCI (just say new stuff you did).

I heard Umich cares a lot about demonstrated interest so would I spend more time talking about Umich and less about me in my letter?

[hardy lichen]

They only count your supplemental essay as your demonstrated interest

[wet thistle]

oh, so LOCI can just be a copy pasta of my Georgia Tech LOCI??

[hardy lichen]

Virtual info session, email with AO, and campus visit doesnt count for UMich

[hardy lichen]

I mean, if your major is the same, why not?

[wet thistle]

I'm gonna change my major from just being CS to a double major in Math and CS - worth talking about or nah? (LAS btw)

[hardy lichen]

You can add 1 sentence or 2 to show why you will definitely choose UMich apart from your other choices, too.

[wet thistle]

got it

[wet thistle]

also congrats on Ross Cyn!

that's crazy

set up for IB and Finance for life haha

[hardy lichen]

LSA?

I dont think there’s LAS college

[wet thistle]

College of Literature, Sciences and Arts

[wet thistle]

YEAH LSA

WHOOPS

lol

[hardy lichen]

Ahh I see, I would say it’s doesnt rlly matter then because LSA admits all students with undeclared major

[wet thistle]

got it

[hardy lichen]

You’re undeclared throughout the first year, not sure the second year of college as I forgot lol

[trim mango]

sorry i think i asked this but is there a certain date we need to submit the LOCI by

[exotic stone]

march 8 iirc

[trim mango]

kk thanks

[neat pawn]

does anyone know if we have to do anything extra for scholarships

bc it says they got rid of separate applications but there’s also like a profile to fill out or smth

[near karma]

whats the deferral acceptance rate

[wintry valve]

got my acceptance package!

[steep wren]

nice! is it a whole package or just a few papers?

[wintry valve]

basically a pamphlet/brochure thing, the acceptance letter, a penant, and some stickers

[steep wren]

o

[left gyro]

where's my acceptance package

😭

[trim mango]

wheres my acceptance...

😏

[vast plank]

Ross decisions when 😭

[steep wren]

oh just got my acceptnace package

why is michy mich "go blue"

i thought it'll be yellow

[civic gazelle]

i think the arrival varies dpeneding on where u live

[wet imp]

Some came on feb 9

Next wave is march 12

[vast plank]

Bet ty

[neat pawn]

the scholarship websites are so not user friendly 💔💔💔💔

[hardy lichen]

Are you domestic?

[hardy lichen]

Feb 9

Another two wave is on march and April

[shadow basin]

You got your financial aid?

[wintry valve]

am domestic, not financial aid package just the mail thing

[shadow basin]

Oh okay thanks for telling

I’m also domestic but living internationally so don’t think I’ll get a mail thing😔

[hushed mortar]

me too! except my physical acceptance letter was crumpled bcs the package got beat up

[left gyro]

I didn’t get it 😭

Maybe later today I will

[glad sleet]

Anyone else applied RD

It comes out late march yeah?

[mighty laurel]

I think mid April

wait that’s crazy

how do they get thru all of those apps

[wet imp]

I rlly hope it aint mid april

I got deferred in january

I aint waiting for allat

[mighty laurel]

Early April

My b

[wet imp]

I thought its late march or by april 1

[mighty laurel]

WRONG!

[wet imp]

You were also wrong originally bozo

‘Mid april’ sayin ahh

[wet imp]

Soy el alfa

[paper marsh]

there's waves apparently

late march is the latest u could receive it

i dug around in reddit and in previous years one of the waves was the last friday of february

[glad sleet]

inshallah

[neat pawn]

anyone else get an estimated aid email

[acoustic dagger]

I did

[steep wren]

i didnt

🤨

[wicked dawn]

Where do we view the letter? I can't seem to find it

[acoustic dagger]

It should say in the email

All the way down

View letter

[wicked dawn]

Ok ty

[neat pawn]

umich why

if i email them and say i just love umich so much and need to go so bad will they give me more money

i genuinely will be crushed if i can’t go because of cost

[hushed mortar]

UMICH LITERALLY GAVE ME $0 😭

oos rip me

[neat pawn]

4000😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵😵

[hushed mortar]

😭 wow that'll really put a dent in tuition

[neat pawn]

omg it’s 70k instead of 72😘😘😘😘

everyone pls collectively manifest i get the first gen scholarship in april😇😇😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[hushed mortar]

good luck 😨

[inland gulch]

Did u have to apply for that ? Cause im first gen

[neat pawn]

i’m pretty sure everyone’s automatically considered for all of them but there’s an optional application somewhere

you have to make like a wolverine access account and do a lot of extra stuff 💔

[inland gulch]

For the optional oneee ? Or just to be considered

[neat pawn]

optional

ur still considered for all when u just apply and get accepted i’m pretty sure

[steep wren]

where is my mich cost estimation email 🤔

[open grotto]

You guys got your award in this Campus Communicator website, right?

[silver herald]

did y'all get aid packages comparable to the npc or like very off?

[shadow basin]

Very off

calc said 30k would be the cost, I got 50k as the cost instead...

[neat pawn]

no yeah i got nothing instead of 50???

[uncut delta]

yh same

prolly cause oos

[left gyro]

You guys got the mail

It’s like they forgot about me lol

I’ve received nothing

[neat pawn]

they factor oos into the calculator though

isn’t there a thing where like if they’re super off from their npc you can ask them to match it

[uncut delta]

idk tbh

there is an appeal

tho

but we havent received

official financial packages yet

[neat pawn]

true

ugh

[uncut delta]

but its prolly gonna be similar to this apparently

but dont they give need-based financial aid

mine is super off too

[neat pawn]

yeah that’s what the email was for scholarships come out in april

[uncut delta]

alrrr

most of em you are auto qualed for right?

[neat pawn]

yeah there’s optional applications somewhere

but i don’t think it’s necessary it takes like an hour just to find the website for it😭

[acoustic dagger]

I only gotta pay 3,000

[left gyro]

where do yall see this??

i got no fin aid pacakge

[acoustic dagger]

They emailed me

[uncut delta]

instate?

[acoustic dagger]

Yeah

[placid ruin]

They might be doing waves, a rumored release for wave 1 is this Friday

[trim mango]

thats so fast tho

did they do that last yr?

[left gyro]

?

Ea just happened

That would be odd

[placid ruin]

It might be this Friday or next friday

They're super vague with it

But they have done it in waves in the past

But they only tell us the latest we'll be told by

Waitlisted people potentially hear even later, even into the summer

[mighty laurel]

maybe for ppl they deferred bc they couldn’t get to their apps?

[placid ruin]

It should be for RD

[mighty laurel]

yes, ppl who were deferred are switched to rd

[placid ruin]

Oh, I meant for people who initially applied RD

[left gyro]

did anyone who got into lsa recieve a scholarship?

[placid ruin]

But it should be for both

[left gyro]

ive seen ross students get one but not lsa

[placid ruin]

One of my friends got a merit scholarship for LSA

It was pretty small tho

[left gyro]

oh, today?

[placid ruin]

For EA a couples weeks ago

[neat pawn]

there’s no way they deferred people bc they didn’t read their apps is that a thing😭

[mighty laurel]

yes for umich

[neat pawn]

that’s weird

if it’s about being postponed that just means the same thing as getting deferred

[left gyro]

I think they actually have done this

Might be wrong

Which is messed up bc they should be reading all apps

[neat pawn]

that’s crazy

i hope not😭

[uncut delta]

nah doubt they do that

[neat pawn]

yeah i feel like that’s unheard of

there’s no way

[uncut delta]

yeah or else no intl students would make it in

they would obviously prioritize US nationals over intls

[neat pawn]

there wouldn’t be a point to ea

[uncut delta]

yh true

[neat pawn]

i think everyone just gets thrown off by the postponed thing because their wording is really off

and they’re like “we need more time to make a decision on your application so we’re moving it to rd”

[uncut delta]

agree

[neat pawn]

but that’s literally just deferred

[mighty laurel]

that’s embarrassing for me! sorry yall

[neat pawn]

oh ur good omg

bless that they’re not doing that🙏🙏🤞🤞

[acoustic dagger]

It actually depends on your admissions counselor, my decision was ready a week before they came out.

[left gyro]

?

what?

idk anyone who got theirs earlier

[trim mango]

umm well does this mean my loci needs to have already been submitted. 😭

[cold cypress]

help help help

how do I get to the lsa honors application page to submit?

i got the friend account

but now it says I don't have access to that page

nvm

figured it out 🆒

[paper marsh]

i think ur fine bc there's waves for rd, but also there's no guarantee they make a decision only after u submit ur loci

[fluid solar]

when did the first round of decisions for deferred ea come out last year?

i submitted my loci a week ago i hope they give me my decision asap

[shadow basin]

For the people who got their decision postponed for the cs advanced selection, do we have to email them the loci?

[manic verge]

Can this happen?

[shadow basin]

Yes it happened to me

[plush peak]

wait if you submit your loci after they reviewed your app, will they still look at the loci

i needa explain extenuating circumstances affecting mid year grades 😭

[unique onyx]

visiting in march!! :D

[neat pawn]

me too! what day?

[left gyro]

I might too

depends on my results

[unique onyx]

the 8th or 9th i believe

[neat pawn]

oooh i’m going on the 9th

[unique onyx]

slayyyy

yeah im going ov er my school's spring break

campus day 😋

[formal talon]

when does RD come out?

[trim mango]

good question

[limber yew]

came out yesterday

(didnt even apply)

[pale quarry]

i heard last friday of march

[placid ruin]

That's the latest they come out

There might be waves each month

[manic verge]

really?

[placid ruin]

That's what they've done in previous years

[trim mango]

like every friday or? do yk

[placid ruin]

From what I've seen it's one wave a month

But it has switched on which day it is

In previous years it's been the first week, the middle week, and the last week

So we won't know until we know

[trim mango]

oop pk thats scary

i need to get this loci done omg😭

[manic verge]

so can I get mine in feb?

or early march?

[placid ruin]

Feb March or april

I think April is the latest month

[manic verge]

so it depends on the date of your app submission

right?

I submitted mine on feb 1

[placid ruin]

Yeah, their enrollment connect says early April is the latest expected date for release of admission decision

[placid ruin]

It could be that

Ive heard that previous years they did all they did all the in states at the same time

But also doing based on when you submitted

[trim mango]

would ea ppl probs get theirs earlier then?

[placid ruin]

Idk

They're super vague with it

[trim mango]

ya that makes sense

[placid ruin]

Submitting later probably doesn't help

[trim mango]

is there a speculated wave tn

[placid ruin]

Either tonight or next friday

[trim mango]

i hope my decision does not come soon bc i still have to send in my loci so ill get on that this wknd lol

[formal talon]

I submitted my rd in late december, does that help with getting my result back earlier?

[placid ruin]

Maybe

If you're a good match probably

But idk

They're super vague

[manic verge]

is it for deferrals?

[placid ruin]

I dont think the defer in rd

They might waitlist, but that should be the last wave

[manic verge]

can rd guys can get today?

[placid ruin]

If you're waitlisted you won't know till the summer

[manic verge]

shit

[trim mango]

dude wl kinda sux

[placid ruin]

Yeah it's horrible

[trim mango]

ive already gotten one i dont need another

[placid ruin]

If its today, it'll be around 3

[formal talon]

so if it is tonight what time

[placid ruin]

So soon

[formal talon]

oh okay

[trim mango]

est?

[placid ruin]

Yeah

[trim mango]

omg 2 mins

[formal talon]

wait thats in like a minute

[trim mango]

if anyone gets a decision report back

[placid ruin]

[wise sorrel]

[placid ruin]

They've done waves the last couple of years tho

[manic verge]

NO WAY

NO FUCKING WAY

I GOT IT

[wise sorrel]

[manic verge]

yea, i am too delusional

ahhahaha

[placid ruin]

CONGRATS

[steep wren]

today is rd??

[wise sorrel]

oh ur tripping or being fr?

[manic verge]

it is learn more about umich

no

[steep wren]

no way today is rd

[manic verge]

i thought it is an update

it is learn more about umich

[steep wren]

ea just came out like 2 weeks ago

when is rd

[placid ruin]

Ea came out in January

[manic verge]

sorry guys

[placid ruin]

We dont have a date for rd

Their portal says early April is the latest you'll know

And in previous years they've done waves

But they haven't said anything about waves

[wise sorrel]

if they do waves EA deferred shud prob be first

[placid ruin]

Or instate

[manic verge]

is umich interested in diversity?

[placid ruin]

Yeah, every college is

Besides BYU

[manic verge]

i wrote a lot of things about my culture and etc

i am not american

[placid ruin]

Oh that's cool

[manic verge]

and literally no one applies from my country

since umich is not that good at aid for internationals

[placid ruin]

You cant be admitted solely on your race tho

[manic verge]

and i am a permanent resident

[manic verge]

yea

[placid ruin]

It can be a factor

Just not the sole reason

They were in a couple of Supreme Court cases about it

[manic verge]

about what?

[placid ruin]

Oh

That's a banned word

Lol

Action

That is Affirmative

Based on race

[manic verge]

Aaa

I see😂

Does applying test optional to umich decrease ur chances?

[placid ruin]

Idk

I dont think it can hurt your chances

But it probably can't help your chances

[left gyro]

just chill out if you're waiting for rd

most likely it will come out a lot later

i got a michigan banner in the mail, does anyone know if it sticks to the wall or??

[unique onyx]

u could tape / pin it up, i have it on my fridge w a magnet rn

[left gyro]

hey yall if you have a non custodial parent waiver submitted and havent gotten your aid, is bc of that

i just called and they said i didnt get any fin aid estimate bc of that

sooo 2/3 more weeks of waiting it is 😔

[steep wren]

aa?

no way aa is a banned word in this server

[wet imp]

It is a banned topic

[steep wren]

looks like someone got too racist 🤫

[obtuse wagon]

THEY REJECTED MY FEE WAIVER BECAUSE IM NOT AMERICAN

BRUH

[radiant hawk]

heyo just got my umich package in the mail

[radiant hawk]

BRUH

[obtuse wagon]

Dalia,

Your request for a waiver of your University of Michigan application fee has been received. Unfortunately, we are only able to grant application fee waivers for U.S. citizens and permanent residents. We regret to inform you that due to your citizenship status, we cannot offer you an application fee waiver.

ok well fuck you

[worldly pivot]

how is it? did u get the go blue guarantee?

[radiant hawk]

nah I'm not in state lol

oh i didnt mean aid package 💀

phrasing...my bad!

i just meant the little package they send in the mail to admitted students

[worldly pivot]

oh ur not. always thought u were lmao

[radiant hawk]

lol nah

[worldly pivot]

oops read that wrong

[radiant hawk]

you're a cs major right

[worldly pivot]

yes

[radiant hawk]

oos?

[worldly pivot]

yes

[radiant hawk]

how generous was umich with aid for you

[worldly pivot]

54k in aid for first year

looking to retain that for next year even tho my sai increased by 4 times

[radiant hawk]

💀 yikes

best of luck

[exotic stone]

💀 💀 💀

[obtuse wagon]

im so mad

cus i wrote a fire essay

and now i cant even apply

[exotic stone]

did u see that coming

[steel valley]

I’m sorry but that would be like tax payer money going to foreigners

Respectfully, What did you expect there?

[steel valley]

I would have been very surprised if you got that fee waiver personally

Michigan is public after all

[exotic stone]

well that would be like aid

a fee waiver isnt all that

[silver herald]

eh i mean money is money

[steel valley]

^

[exotic stone]

thats true

[wise sorrel]

isnt it too late to apply anyways

[paper marsh]

what's in it

[calm mountain]

When should i submit the loci for deferrals? Im going to go to hackmit blueprint on march 2rd/3rd so should i wsit to submit it after that?

[obtuse wagon]

i already applied but i put in a fee waiver request now i have to withdraw

[obtuse wagon]

if i was american i probably would have

[exotic stone]

because it'd be taxpayer money

so ofc

[silver herald]

withdraw the fee waiver request or your application itself?

[frosty yew]

its over for u

i hope they give ur aid to me 😎

[obtuse wagon]

the whole application

[manic verge]

sorry, why do you have to withdraw ur app?

[obtuse wagon]

cus i cant pay the fee

[uncut delta]

why apply tho, they dont give financial aid to intls

[obtuse wagon]

i cant pay the fee rn cus of circumstances but i could possibly pay for my tuition

because like um loans and shit

[uncut delta]

oh alrightt

but imo, taking loans for 80k a year would put you in lifelong debt

[near karma]

depends on what ur studying

if ur gona do premed then maybe cuz then u gotta go to med school 💀

[obtuse wagon]

im not gonna take an 80k loan dw

if i was going my parents would pay most of it

[worldly pivot]

My biggest opp

[elfin fossil]

did rd come out?

[strange quiver]

no

it's believed that some decisions will be released in waves on fridays

[analog veldt]

finally turned in that eci form PLEASE TAKE ME UMICH

[manic verge]

is umich need aware?

[kind scaffold]

does this apply for those who were recently deferred?

[toxic raft]

do u think decision come out on fri?

this fiday

[strange quiver]

I am not sure but from what i hv read on reddit, the waves are mostly for postponed applicants so probably yeah

i have seen a couple of ppl mention on reddit that they got in end of feb, first week of march or middle of march

eventhough the RD decision date is like end march/early april

[kind scaffold]

that sounds quite good!

thank you for the information 🙌

[strange quiver]

no problem!

[toxic raft]

do u think some will come out on feb 23?

[strange quiver]

honestly I am not sure, can only wait and see

but well, I hope they release some early

[manic verge]

Will I be okay with one D+(social studies) with a reasonable circumstance? My uw gpa is 3.956

[analog veldt]

can you send the reddit link? this is all just theory atp

[fluid solar]

i sent my loci on feb 9th do y'all think i can get my decision this fri

[paper marsh]

for the past couple years one of the waves has been the last friday of february so probably

[analog veldt]

where are y'all getting this from

[toxic raft]

One of my friend got accepted on last Friday of feb

But that was2022

[paper marsh]

a while ago i dug through reddit and found a post a couple years back where people were saying they got their decisions, and the comments were posted on the last friday of february

i also asked in the umich discord server and some people confirmed that either them or their friends got decisions around that time

[kind scaffold]

were only stellar/exceptional students being admitted early, perhaps like how UCB did very recently?

[turbid stone]

For the LOCI do we start with “dear Umich admission blah blah” like how for usual LOCI or do we get straight into updates

[kind scaffold]

I started mine with 'Dear Admissions Committee'

signed off with my name concisely as normal

you prolly save a few words not doing this but it felt incredibly awkward not addressing the AOs so yea

[fluid solar]

bruh i just went straight to the point

no dear admissions or signing off 💀

[strange quiver]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/s/5ecqIZzr7J

it’s not theory, it has happened before but I can’t confirm it will happen this year

[kind scaffold]

good on you for shaving like 5-6 words approximately

would've honestly used those 5-6 words myself but I wasn't sure in what format they would receive the note. Would be interesting to see how other people went about it

[trim mango]

i am still procrastinating this loci lol oops

[worldly pivot]

But it’s a letter, how can y’all not put Dear X University Admissions and Sincerely, X 😭😭😭

[wintry valve]

yeah in my deferral letter to a different school i basically did standard letter format with dear and stuff like that

[silver herald]

what's umich's mascot

[worldly pivot]

wolverines

[silver herald]

oh yes that was a dumb question

[worldly pivot]

also i need more of y'all to come on official visits so the dining hall can serve better food

[wintry valve]

😢

[wispy parrot]

What i greeted them but didnt sign off

[trim mango]

idk since its like a little text box i dont know if i even wanna put a greeting like 😭

every word is precious

please convert to celsius for my dumb ass to understand

[worldly pivot]

oh man, u are not suited for umich

[silver herald]

oh shi thats cold

[kind scaffold]

lol yes. I actually visited Salzburg and it was the most surreal experience ever. There's something awfully beautiful about countrysides. Life's a lot simpler

[worldly pivot]

it's 30-40 F on average 💀 and if u think 70 is chilly, ur in trouble

[silver herald]

im sitting in like 21 now and its mildly chilly

<10 is literally impossible for me

and my dream school is uchicago 💀

[silver herald]

[kind scaffold]

im guessing you're saying AC

[silver herald]

oh that's awesome

[silver herald]

nh

nah

[kind scaffold]

i disagree

[silver herald]

indian food in general>

i refuse to choose

i love my dosas and vadais

but i also love my parathas and naans

[kind scaffold]

as a south indian, there's a time and place for either of the two

[silver herald]

real

dosa is comfort food

[kind scaffold]

ghee roast

[silver herald]

naan malai kofta is guilty pleasure food

[silver herald]

a2b ghee roast>>>>>

so cool!

[kind scaffold]

low standards now tbh. i bet you can get better ones in the US now

[silver herald]

actually yeah my fav is my moms

nothing will beat sangeetha sambar tho

LMAO WHAT

[kind scaffold]

ok this is facts tho

[silver herald]

controversial opinion i dont like gulab jamun

[kind scaffold]

no you genuinely don't know how bad A2B has gotten here

[silver herald]

like its ok but there are MUCH better indian sweets

kaju kathli

*forgets every other sweet *

[kind scaffold]

[silver herald]

RASAGULLA

shit i shoudl be doing chemistry

[kind scaffold]

basundi

[silver herald]

i've never had that but i remember it from an english lesson (akbar birbal i think?) in 5th grade

JALEBI

[kind scaffold]

true. tbh i feel for y'all over there

[kind scaffold]

i think it's what rabri is called in the north

could be, but the products won't be all that different

prolly lacking a few gems

[silver herald]

i love aloo bhujia

please tell me US has aloo bhujia

[kind scaffold]

either way, haldirams isn't as popular where @silver herald and I live

[silver herald]

nooooooo

valid

broskis

do i do chemistry or sleep

i usually sleep at 11 so its almost 2 hours past my bedtime

[kind scaffold]

everyone should do this

[silver herald]

but boards is in less than a week

but chemistry :(

[kind scaffold]

filter coffee>>

[silver herald]

lol i just had coffee

[kind scaffold]

it's an emotion

[silver herald]

i would say mom's coffee>>> but actually my maid's coffee>>>>>>>

meh

[kind scaffold]

no. we have startbucks over here and it's stupid

india's coffe culture is different, and better if you ask me

particularly south indian filter coffee

but it's not comparable to italian roasts and stuff

it's diff

that's really interesting. I love drinking non-chai teas so I'm intrigued

there's definitely a difference. Coffee plantation is done throughout the southern part of the country so it's very organic and different

perhaps i'm basic with my tea knowledge, but matcha is definitely something I'm a fan of

don't really get it much here tho. so have to savor at the opportunity when we get our hands on some

no i mean there're plenty of japanese expats that live in my city

they set up local stores

but yea it isn't a common occurence to see any in a store.

[loud trench]

bro

why does umich got

an loci

like why tf would I apply

if im not interested

[wispy parrot]

im treating it as an update letter

with like a sentence saying that I'm still interested

[kind scaffold]

what i don't get is why RD applicants get the LOCI notification as well

doesn't make any sense to me, wouldn't get that for most other schools

[loud trench]

yea bruh

like why tf would I apply that too in RD

[unique onyx]

if I'm applying for an MLC and one of the essays is similar in nature to one that I wrote for U-M, would it be fine to more or less reuse it while changing a few parts here and there?

[fluid solar]

I swear if i get rejected because I didn't write "dear admissions committee"-

[proud peak]

ik this is kinda a question for #💭-majors-and-minors but I got accepted into CS-Eng and since I am instate will be able to transfer a lot of gen eds and whatever other classes ik would contribute to my degree to where i should be able to dual major, even across colleges, if i wanted to... what would be a good degree to dual major in alongside CS-Eng? ik that sorta depends on what I am interested in but didnt know if there was better options over others; am currently looking at Math or Stats through LSA

• is it worth staying in dorms 1st semester, know some friends down there to where I could probably get a lease or get referred for a rental lease on a place "off campus"

[worldly pivot]

i would recommend it for the whole first year

i've only met one freshman who isn't living in the dorms

[proud peak]

👍 thanks for advice

[humble osprey]

should I submit the letter of continued interest even if I just applied RD?

[lean shale]

you don't need one if you didn't get deferred

[obtuse wagon]

no i did tht and then emailed my admissions counsellor from umich she said you shouldnt

[kind scaffold]

better not to either way, given one may be able to use the content on it for a potential waitlist LOCI (if it indeed comes to that)

would be interesting to see if they legit considered it

[trail nova]

If I won awards after being deferred should I mention it in the LOCI and email the admissions or just mention it in loci

[tender valve]

i think its enough to mention it in loci because loci is kind of like an updat

[unique onyx]

mention in loci

[undone token]

lol which one

[unique onyx]

mrads

[undone token]

LOL i was in that

i knew a2c mfs would be applying to mrads

[unique onyx]

lmfaoooo

i'm not just doing it for MOJO 😭 though it is nice

i rlly do wanna do research and it seems like a nice enough place to start if i can get in

second choice MLC is the writing one

[undone token]

oh lswa is chill everyone there is queer

[unique onyx]

shit maybe it should be my first choice

[undone token]

mrads is a bit sweaty and our year was a bit of a mess

[unique onyx]

ahhhh

[undone token]

but like

i am glad for it

[unique onyx]

shrug

[undone token]

[left gyro]

so if I wanna transfer into the school of public health for the public health major BA

And honors

Cause it’s a diff school

[proud peak]

I would shoot an email to the LSA Scholarship email or just UMich FinAid email

[toxic raft]

yall think rd will come this fri?

for postponed ppl

[wintry valve]

no

[toxic raft]

I thought first wave comes last fri of feb

[trim mango]

should i focus more abt why i wanna go to mich in my loci or my recent accomplishments

does anyone know

i just do ot feel like writing it but its ok. like i want to go but writing this just feels slightly redundant

[jade pilot]

im a little late but I would say focus on what u have been up to since u applied, and make sure to stress that u will go if u are accepted/it is still your top choice. i think they already know why u want to go from ur other essays

[wild charm]

hello

When do RD results come out?

[analog veldt]

probs march 29 at 3 pm est

[wild charm]

ok thanks

[warm hollow]

i dont think u shud discuss why u wud want to go there since they expected you to mention that in their why umich supplemental

idk for mine i mentioned new ecs, but i didnt get the chance to dive into grades cuz most of my time has been into building on my hobbies

wish the loci was longer because my grades werent the best last semester

i wudve wanted to explain it

but ive heard from current students that mich cares more abt ecs rather than grades

but u shud most definetely talk about new awards and accomplishments for sure

try to get the letter in soon j for ur own sake so u dont gotta keep worrying abt it

[plush peak]

do you think i shd still explain a dip in mid year grades cuz of extenuating circumstances

[wispy parrot]

I’m at 249 words and haven’t connected anything back to umich

[fluid solar]

i didn't connect to umich at all
