University of Michigan (UMich) (2024-2025)

[barren stag]

he responded to me??

[mystic ibex]

I guarantee you you earn like

[hybrid flicker]

Because there’s a policy of under 100k or smth it’s tuition free lol

[mystic ibex]

350k+

[barren stag]

no

[hybrid flicker]

Nate dude calm down stop being pressed LMAO

[mystic ibex]

And you just consider yourself middle class☠️

Even though you’re not

A lot of people ik do that

[hybrid flicker]

Private vs public is wildly different but even out of state UMich is going to give aid

[mystic ibex]

Spoiler alert if you’re above 200k your ass is NOT middle class

[mystic ibex]

Nah they don’t really tbh

[hybrid flicker]

Agreed

[mystic ibex]

Like I’ve seen people with like

140k income

0 aid

They just don’t give a shit like the ivies

[high vault]

No idea what’s being argued here but a lot of out of state publics do not do this outside of the required federal aid

[wintry mountain]

They do lol

[barren stag]

dude im confused he responded to me first 😭

[mystic ibex]

I mean yeah but not for a lot of people

[hybrid flicker]

No clue what the hostility is about either tbh 😭

[mystic ibex]

You got aid but hella people don’t who should

[hybrid flicker]

Was just giving input

[barren stag]

i wasnt hostile but ok

[wintry mountain]

Yeah fs I get your point

[mystic ibex]

Yeah that’s why I was so confused😭

[high vault]

Yeah I’m not taking sides just noticed that particular thing and wanted to clarify it

[barren stag]

idk why yall think im hostile 💀

[wintry mountain]

I think it's mostly because my parents are in a weird spot

[hybrid flicker]

Nate you literally basically tried to assume a bunch of things about my own familial financial situation dude

[mystic ibex]

Yeah but take that offer and run with it dude

[hybrid flicker]

And was passive aggressive about it 😭

Then practically demanded my fafsa sai to prove your point

[barren stag]

you responded to me first

"upper middle class here and did not get cooked" what does that even mean 😭

[hybrid flicker]

I meant in a “I don’t think this is necessarily true for all situations” type of way not a “screw you you’re 100% wrong”

[high vault]

While this is true I am not sure how necessary this in response was

[hybrid flicker]

I was merely trying to show people it wasn’t as bleak as what others might think esp since I know even in general that’s been a misconception floating around

[barren stag]

not the way he thought it meant

[hybrid flicker]

those aren’t my pronouns either

It’s she/they

[barren stag]

ok

[high vault]

I am just not sure what you were trying to achieve here? You could’ve shared your experiences if they were different but I don’t see a point in putting down hers

[barren stag]

98k

[hybrid flicker]

Hey hey! 24571 was mine

[barren stag]

💀

yes cancelled

[wintry mountain]

4450 lol

[high vault]

What a wild self report this was

[barren stag]

so we are going to analyze my every statement now

[high vault]

You fucked up going after her

It was unnecessary

Own up to it and we can all move on

[barren stag]

dude i didnt even continue after that

u keep sending pics of my convo

[high vault]

Idk

[hybrid flicker]

I’d also like to say I don’t have more money to spend cause my parents literally have a set income by the inc which is a separate business entity that they have no access to funds to besides business expenses

Additionally my parents got robbed three years ago and my college fund was eradicated

Don’t go around assuming people’s financial circumstances for ragebait

It’s not funny and honestly just own up to it instead of being an actually rude and tasteless person

[barren stag]

bro i already moved on

dont call me rude and tasteless for this 1 interaction

just because i said smth shitty which wasnt my intention u get to call me rude now

[high vault]

Ngl dude just apologize then

[barren stag]

I misunderstood ur comment and I apologize

BRO

I MOVED ON

yall keep sending pics

[high vault]

Genuine tip outside of any of this: moving on means nothing apology wise and if anything makes you look dismissive

[barren stag]

@sharp wing ??

dude get off

[hybrid flicker]

I’m done with this and this is the last time I will be interacting with you. You’ve been rude and mean spirited to me before by being dismissive in this megathread.

[barren stag]

..

@hybrid flicker i apologize actually

i seriously didnt mean to

I let my emotions control me

Can we move on from this interaction

[hybrid flicker]

Wait pack what did you want to say about sai btw

[barren stag]

@sharp wing can you stop

@hybrid flicker please

damn blocked

[hybrid flicker]

Ohhh icic lol

Nate I’m not unblocking you, you’re just like an ex that realizes his wrongs after the girl breaks up w him LMAO

[barren stag]

dude im actually sorry

i never meant for this to happen

Even if its just an online interaction i don't want beef w anyone

I did not mean to comment negatively about ur financial situation

I was just pissed

[hybrid flicker]

Anyways yeah, sorry guys if I misconstrued info about umich oos since I’m in state 😭 . Def if it’s more than like 150k for four years and it’s not like your dream dream DREAM school don’t do it 🙏

[barren stag]

alr ig

[dense stone]

how does ur fmaily own two businesses and u only pay 19k

[distant mica]

Oh is this about the guy 25k a year for mich or free at Utah

[wintry mountain]

Yeah for sure haha

[distant mica]

That’s a toughie ngl

[wintry mountain]

Probably won't know till end of march

[barren stag]

@hybrid flicker can we talk it out please

[wintry mountain]

Yeah :/

[dense stone]

middle class is relative

[distant mica]

Yall chill what is this banter

[hybrid flicker]

They do it corporation style so the corporation has a business account which is only accessible using businesses expenses

[barren stag]

i just wanna make amends 😭

[distant mica]

What is the point in this 😭

[barren stag]

we had an argument earlier and I fucked up

[dense stone]

my sai is cooked

[hybrid flicker]

They only have a very small amount for personal based on income per month from that corporation account

[mystic ibex]

alr maybe only in the bay area 200k is middle class

in NJ it's not

[dense stone]

its a little more than a third ofour income

[hybrid flicker]

Literally nothing it escalated for no reason and then I just blocked lolol

[barren stag]

now I just wanna talk w her again

...

[mystic ibex]

I consider upper class as top 20%

[dense stone]

72k

[tacit nimbus]

Internet people don’t exist outside the internet

[dense stone]

cooked

[barren stag]

@tacit nimbus dude still

i feel shitty

[tacit nimbus]

Womp womp

[barren stag]

..

[hybrid flicker]

So true king

[mystic ibex]

womp womp indeed

it's chill

[barren stag]

bruh

[dense stone]

yk whats annoying tho when yk someone whos family makes 7 figures but they do some fancy stuff and their sai is lower than mine

💀

[hybrid flicker]

It’s all about hiding assets

[distant mica]

Honestly either one will end up being great for you, college is basically only dependent on how you shape it at a certain level. congrats on UMich btw!

[hybrid flicker]

It’s so fucked cause if you’re not financially literate you literally get shafted

[dense stone]

or like

ik my friends familys incomes r close to ours

but they dont save their money and splurge it and we invest it into properties and stocks and stuff and we get cooked and they get 15k sai

[tacit nimbus]

Keep it offshore or in liquid assets

[hybrid flicker]

Hide it in vintage cars or watches or artwork

Materialistic items that hold value that aren’t usually asked about

Nope

Cause it’s dedicated for it

[wintry mountain]

Thanks! Best of luck to you as well :)

[barren stag]

Does anyone know if umich deferred is the same as RD

or is it different days

I couldn't find anything

[tacit nimbus]

Same day

[barren stag]

alr

thanks

[hybrid flicker]

Also!! @wintry mountain I think if you really want a pro’s take, feel free to ping or ask bg10 in #💵-financial-aid

[wintry mountain]

Ooh good point, it looks like mechanic is there as well

[hybrid flicker]

Mechanic is a goat fs

[dense stone]

for lowering assets?

[hybrid flicker]

No for their UMich decision lol

[dense stone]

oh

whats selling us is rental property and business portion

[hybrid flicker]

That sold my cousin too

He’s paying full sticker for Cornell

[dense stone]

damn

[hybrid flicker]

90k+

[dense stone]

does fafsa account in main house value

[barren stag]

no

the one ur living in

im pretty sure they dont count it

[dense stone]

makes sense

[barren stag]

yeah my dad screwed that over so we had to redo fafsa

[dense stone]

stupid thing is is that my dads rental property is valued at like 300k

[barren stag]

He added the house as an asset

[dense stone]

but it shouldn't be valued that high

[wintry mountain]

@ripe temple sorry for the ping but I'm interested in your perspective on this as a Michigan student. What do scholarships look like for returning undergraduates/are "high paying internships" (like $20k-$30k, enough to pay a significant amount of tuition)? I'm currently trying to figure out if Michigan at $25k/year makes sense for me, and if there a lot of financial opportunities there that would make it a lot easier

[dense stone]

ur own house?

whats ur sai

[barren stag]

yeah 💀

98k

[dense stone]

damn

i need to recheck mine

[barren stag]

shouldnt be that high tho fs 😭

[dense stone]

but i dont think it changes anything

whats yalls income

ngl i thought my sai was normal and all my friends were like 20k

[barren stag]

like 233k net but its diff cause cali prices

and we get like

[dense stone]

ok so we're pretty close

[barren stag]

other income from taking care of grandparents

from the government

[drowsy wolf]

damn

[barren stag]

idk if that counts

[barren stag]

its cali income tho 😭

[dense stone]

i dont think changing fafsa amount does anything to ur sai tho

[barren stag]

expensive asf

[dense stone]

its solidified

[barren stag]

[dense stone]

this is the email i got from baylor

[drowsy wolf]

wait my sai is so low

[dense stone]

cause i dont think my parents getting a portion of their company's profits counts as business net worth

[hybrid flicker]

You got cooked

[dense stone]

so i think that got my sai cooked

[hybrid flicker]

Didn’t know fafsa had such restrictions

[dense stone]

u can dispute ur financial aid from ur school so it doesnt matter

[barren stag]

OH THEY SENT ME THAT TOO

💀

[dense stone]

and our income is dropping like 100k

[barren stag]

i changed the income portion

[dense stone]

so imma be poor soon

W

[barren stag]

baylor charging crazy also

70k+

[dense stone]

aint going there

i think they gave me like 30k a year

[barren stag]

yeah agreed

[dense stone]

not worth

[barren stag]

i got a scholarship

but still 50+

[dense stone]

ya

only going if its full ride

and thats a maybe

no acceptance package either

L school

[barren stag]

they sent one wym

[dense stone]

i only got a letter

not a package

[barren stag]

oh that

yeah same

[dense stone]

its not a package if its not a box

i got 4 packages so far

[barren stag]

firee

[dense stone]

ya i heard usc gives an airtag if u get in marshall

[tacit nimbus]

💀💀💀

What did you expected atp

I’ve heard that generally you should never change the FAFSA info and should always directly contact the college for changed information

[dense stone]

yeah i didnt know that til i got that

but yeah idrc

i'll take the loans

[barren stag]

work study 🔥

[dawn basin]

Yeah after savings there’d be like 100k or so left

[dense stone]

ohh ok

do yk if ur parents will still pitch in while ur there

i mean u can always ask for more fin aid

but i heard public schools r more stingy

[dawn basin]

Yeah already tried and unfortunately they can’t

[dawn basin]

Most likely but I’d still have some debt after

[inland yarrow]

yeah I ended up not applying to Michigan because of the 90k/yr cost (I'm not eligible for aid), though the school seems rly nice and I would love to go there lol

doesn't matter though, since I got UIUC and UT (in-state)

the only state school I could maybe justify paying the 90k for is Berkeley, which is closer to 80k and I have relatives in the area

[supple girder]

I applied just to see if i could get in (been my dream school for a long time), literally no intention of paying 90k n going to umich.

[supple girder]

UT in-state is damn good, both prestige n cost wise. Congrats

[supple girder]

ngl idt i could justify paying 50k+ for ANY uni, for masters sure but not for undergrad (I'd only justify it if i had no intention of masters/PhD)

[inland yarrow]

I mean at this point the only school I'm really considering that would be very expensive is Stanford (where I'm full pay)

CMU/Berkeley are pretty much out of the picture atm

and harvard/princeton/MIT give me enough aid

[supple girder]

ouch, i thought private unis r generous with need based

[supple girder]

estimated or already accepted?

[inland yarrow]

I didnt apply aid at stanford because i would be considered intl and therefore need-aware

estimated

[supple girder]

oh k

[inland yarrow]

harvard/pton/mit dont care at all

[supple girder]

I mean, unless u can afford full price does it make a difference? Its an amazing acceptance that u may or may not be able to accept

[inland yarrow]

i can afford full price

[supple girder]

oh, then it doesnt matter lol

[inland yarrow]

it wouldnt be very comfortablr but

it works out

[supple girder]

fair enough

[supple girder]

me with purdue n osu lmao

[dense stone]

both for cs?

[dense stone]

i think it depends on the job ur going into where a prestigious university is necessary tob reak in

[inland yarrow]

cs+ling

[latent flower]

Anyone know how good honors program is? I got in and I am definitely considering Michigan more now but i want to know more anecdotal experience or things you’ve heard

[tacit nimbus]

Preferential classes, honors dorm, guaranteed access to AC, etc is what I’ve heard

[upbeat marsh]

this but otherwise it's nothing special

[lethal lance]

does anyo know the decision date

[hybrid flicker]

Late March/early April

[lethal lance]

okk ty

[umbral jasper]

hi

hi

[mental elk]

cs+ling in the big 2025 💔

jk thats goated

[tawdry sandal]

I really don't think any school is worth 100k+, considering the economy and job market

320k is too much

[quick dust]

Honors doesnt guarantee AC

Iirc only some of south quad has AC

[supple girder]

Its michigan, why would anyone even need AC 💀

(except during summer ig)

[dawn basin]

Unfortunately all my colleges are 100k+ besides state school

[supple girder]

For 4 years?

Same

I have one uni that comes to 80k but its mid af

[dawn basin]

Yeah

[quick dust]

Bro, the first 2-3 weeks are brutal

[quick dust]

Bro, unless you qualify for decent amount of financial aid, a majority of schools are gonna be over 100k for the undergrad

Even my shitty state school, at 33k/yr would be 132k for 4 years

[tawdry sandal]

Oh no for 4 years thats normal, sadly

But 100k per year is insane

[quick dust]

Oh lol

[tawdry sandal]

yeh yeh

would u pay 100k per year?

[tawdry sandal]

oh wait is it 100k per year or 100k for 4 years?

if its for 4 years then yuh

[barren stag]

Hooray

[ripe temple]

I doubt he means 100k per year, most universities, including Michigan, don't cost that much yet

[safe fjord]

are there any undergrad colleges in the US that actually cost 100k+ per year? i know some get close, but i haven't heard of any that are actually greater than that because that'd just be insanity

[slate minnow]

i’ve heard some rumors about USC getting that expensive but i’m not sure if that’s true

[alpine mountain]

i still haven't gotten my financial aid from this school 😭

[dawn basin]

Yeah for 4 thankfully not each

But for some like Michigan it’s 80k so not too far off

[tawdry sandal]

Ohh I thought you meant 100k per year I was like hell nah

Maybe over 4 years yeah but that’s still a lot

[dawn basin]

Yeah 100k per year is a crazy amount

[supple girder]

Highest temp? iirc when i was living in michigan/visited during summer it was tolerable (but i’m used to 30-38 celsius without ac)

[quick dust]

i dont remember

[supple girder]

Imagine paying that much for a public uni 💀

Literally criminal

[empty axle]

it reaches 100 in the summer sometimes btw 😭

and recetnly there been so many heat wave s

i wouldve died without ac last summer ng l😞

[supple girder]

Hmmm tolerable but not comfortable, if ventilation system is shitty/very small rooms it’d be rlly bad

[supple girder]

Me every summer (my dad refuses to buy an ac 😭)

[dry spruce]

umich price tag is worth it cause of football 🙂

[signal crag]

nah midd ass program

(biased)

they beat my team in the natty 😔

[dry spruce]

U DUBBBB

[signal crag]

BUT WE BEAT THEM THIS YEAR

[dry spruce]

well this year is something we dont talk about :))

next year will be so insane

even if i dont get in imma go to the ohio state mich game 100 percent

[reef remnant]

new yorker wouldnt understand what it feels to be in heaven

i did go to new york 2 days ago

california beats it

[tawdry sandal]

Well public unis tend to give less than private ones

So it makes sense especially if you’re oos

[granite zinc]

If I put on my application that I want to be considered for umich flint but i havent filled out all the extra stuff for umich flint for internationals (passports and such) will it affect my decision for the main campus as well?

[strange viper]

no, the campuses and their decisions are completely separate. as long as you did the stuff for main campus youre good

[quick dust]

Bro needs to be sent to bursley basement dorm with zero ac and small window

[supple girder]

Why is there a dorm room in a basement 💀💀

[quick dust]

bro idk

Bursley is diabolical

[supple girder]

That sounds suffocating even with ac

[reef remnant]

maybe thats why there was a shooting there back in the days

drives a man crazy

[umbral jasper]

hi mich

[empty axle]

do you guys think early action for ross preferred admission come out by the second coming of Jesus Christ

😁

[crude nacelle]

does anyone have an example letter of begging for more money

[ripe temple]

You can probably Google it

[fathom peak]

dear univeristy
pls gimme some mone mone 💸
best regards
me

[worldly spire]

Do we have a date

[spiral crescent]

before april 1st

[frail fossil]

What happened to hello

😞

[wild pier]

Hello

Now do we have a fucking date

[frail fossil]

Id prefer a normal date first 😞

[haughty bison]

[still warren]

I heard march 28

[fiery matrix]

pls umich

[empty axle]

I applied EA preferred admission to Ross and still havent heard back n they said "we don't use postponed decisions but your applicaiton is still under review"?? 😭

is that just a sugar coated way to say I got deffered

[haughty bison]

i think its that or they had too many preferred applicants and couldnt finish reviewing all of them in time, and yours was one they havent got to yet

[empty axle]

hopefully the second 😔

[tacit nimbus]

I am the same.

[limber sundial]

Umich next week?

[tight hamlet]

I thought 28

[limber sundial]

Oh fr

[shadow shore]

no idea about umich but im waitin

[still canyon]

Hey, those who applied LSA, what sat scores did you submit if you don’t mind sharing?

[stuck rune]

Idk if this’ll help but I submitted 1510 during ea rounds

[spiral crescent]

i applied ea eng so this might not help but i submitted a 1460

[twilit moss]

I got in ea and submitted a 1550

[tacit nimbus]

I think Michigan values essays over grades

Their GPA calculations wind up rounding up most people’s grades anyways so I feel like most of their focus is on essays and ECs

[still canyon]

Thank you guys!

I submitted SAT lower than these so will retake in may

hopefully i can transfer in

[steady ruin]

1550 EA, deferred

[shadow shore]

1510 Deferred CS

It’s not just SAT trust me

[civic orbit]

If it helps, I went test optional since I didn’t like my score and did get accepted EA.

Don’t stress about it too much, definitely other factors they look at too!

[still canyon]

Thanks! I still doubt I am getting in but there is always hope 🤞

[obsidian island]

ik a couple of 1570+ deferred (science & cs ppl)

i think umich lwk tried yield protection bc ik ppl w mid stats who got in

[shadow shore]

The thing is tho it’s like my second top 😭

Let me INNNN!

I do know a few ppl with lower stats in but I put it down to either easier major or better overall application

Stats just aren’t everything

[tacit nimbus]

If you really really want to get in, I’ve heard Kinesiology and Nursing are very doable

Hard to get out of though

[shadow shore]

Nah I only want CS, IS, or Software Dev

I have options still so I don’t need Umich but it would certainly be fantastic

I also wrote my essay all about programming so doing that and then saying “hope to see yall in Kinesiology” would be crazy

[tight hamlet]

I thought umich doesn’t consider major unless impacted

And ur considered for the school?

[still canyon]

how competetive is it to get into LSA?

[haughty bison]

@tame sage

[tacit nimbus]

I think LSA’s acceptance rate reflects the University’s acceptance rate of ~16-17%

It gets competitive if you apply for Engineering, CS, or Ross

[ripe temple]

There's no data but apparently it's pretty much similar to engineering acceptance rate.

[ripe temple]

Not really true, they're also both incredibly competitive.

[ripe temple]

They don't yield protect. Gotta remember it's a holistic process. There's more to getting admitted to college than just stats. Michigan puts a huge emphasis on your Why Michigan Essay so that might be a big reason why.

[quasi sky]

When did decisions come out last year?

[mystic ibex]

No💀

The school has a 7% acceptance rate for engineering oos prolly or around that

I got in with a 1590 and 4.0 the reality is like

Hella qualified people get deferred and waitlisted all the time

[valid orbit]

any ross admits ??

[stuck rune]

Def think they do a very holistic process, most of the people from my school that got in def weren’t the smartest but I could say they were the quirkiest

[quasi sky]

i changed my mind on my major. I applied to engineering but I know ill switch to architecture if im admitted. Since its harder to get into the college of engineering should I email admissions asking to change my major? Is it too late in the process? Anyone have advice?

[tacit nimbus]

It’s very late

Don’t take my word for it though

[haughty bison]

for preferred or for ea

i got in for ea

[tight hamlet]

Is it too late to email an admissions officer and be like hey

I was affected by California fires so I didn’t have much time to focus on application

[teal widget]

1460

[grand lintel]

don't u gotta do a whole portfolio for that tho?

[quasi sky]

oh, i didnt know that. that answers that then

[tame sage]

AY AY AY AY

[tame sage]

Honestly it wouldn’t hurt

I just now started chatting mine up

[noble dirge]

is there a predicted decision date

[high vault]

Probably the 21st or 28th

In the meantime yall made March Madness so you should join our bracket groups pinned in #🏀-march-madness

[tame sage]

I hope the 21st

[slate minnow]

i think the earliest it’s been in a while was the 26th

so i’d assume the 28th this year

[tame sage]

I’m just holding out because EA came out a little early this year Yk

[strange viper]

i think thats only bc if EA came out at its normal time, it wouldve been on the last day of january and thats very late

but who knows

colleges are unpredictable

[mental elk]

do we have a decision date

[mental elk]

fair

speculated decision date in my spreadsheet is 28th ima stick to that

[still lintel]

Yo

I got the following text

This is a scam right

[floral parcel]

that’s so weird the email ends in gmail

[still lintel]

Yeah and nothing comes up for Celena Umakowsky

[floral parcel]

i don’t think you should answer it

[still lintel]

Yeah same

[floral parcel]

i’m surprised scam messages have popped up for stuff like college admissions 😭😭

[still lintel]

Ty

Fr

@ripe temple would you agree?

[severe thistle]

maybe forward the email to the umich undergrad admissions office? that way you acknowledge it if it’s legit but they can confirm if it’s real or not

[high vault]

They’re not gonna Gmail you

All faculty at universities have domain emails

So it’d come from umich.edu

It may be worth forwarding them the email to make them aware of the scam but I would bet basically anything that it’s not legitimate

[still lintel]

alright- thanks a lot

[high vault]

The wording is actually extremely similar to the discord support scam bc both of them claim you need to reach out to some additional support/advising staff and threaten you with a short time span to do so

[grand lintel]

Holy crap I just got a 20 thousand dollar scholarship per year

I didn't even know they gave that much for merit in state

[high vault]

Congrats!

[grand lintel]

Thank you!

Gotta commit now 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[tacit nimbus]

Congratulations!

[dawn basin]

Where do you see that?

[grand lintel]

I just got an email an hour ago

[still lintel]

yeah, thanks a lot, it' was just really worrying based on the wording lmao

[high vault]

Are you local to Michigan? Mostly wondering if this is someone you know irl who got your number or if there’s a chance of a data breach

Yeah probably some acquaintance

[still lintel]

unfunniest prank ever if so

[high vault]

There is a chance your number is out there tho tbf just not data breached via Michigan

I would see if you can try googling it and see what pops up

You could also try googling your full name to see if you’re on whitepages and similar sites

[still lintel]

I found out who it is bruh

lol

[ripe temple]

If the email doesn't have .umich.edu it's almost certainly a scam

It's a consistent issue here and other universities

[fading crag]

is this the engineering scholarship or smth else

[grand lintel]

LSA

Shipman scholars

[spiral crescent]

the eng scholarship is 15k

[gray mural]

R

[distant mica]

Is tentative RD date 3/28?

[dawn basin]

Do you know when that’s released?

And is it available for oos

[spiral crescent]

i got mine 3/6 and i’m oos

idk if it’s rolling or not but if it’s not they already sent it out

[dawn basin]

Yeah maybe I didn’t then, do you know where they sent it?

[spiral crescent]

they emailed me

[spiral crescent]

and then they updated my financial aid notice including the award like a week later

[dawn basin]

Was that sent to the email you applied with?

[spiral crescent]

yeah

[dawn basin]

Yeah I must’ve not gotten it then, what were your stats if you don’t mind me asking?

[ripe temple]

Oh yeah, the scholarship of honor is usually difficult to get

[spiral crescent]

[tame sage]

Because my mom is a single mother

[fathom peak]

When are decisions out?

[mental elk]

Either 21st or 28th, heavily leaning to 28th probability wise

Based on past trends, at least

[distant mica]

The portal hasn’t closed yet either

[fathom peak]

Ah ok

Thank you

[mental elk]

Portal closes 2-3 days before decisions right?

If it closes in the next few hours we know it's 21st

[spiral crescent]

portal closes the monday before decisions p sure

[mental elk]

oh then gotta be 28th ig

[ripe temple]

Damn, likely gonna be on my bday is crazy

[dawn basin]

Thanks! Do you know if the general engineering scholarship is very competitive?

[ripe temple]

It usually is

[short rover]

Hi

[brisk kernel]

anyone have details on merit scholarships for Ross admits

[haughty bison]

i got nothing so far

all i know is that they're very hard to get

[brisk kernel]

yeah have you committed already

[haughty bison]

not yet

maybe thats why

[fresh bramble]

Does Ross have merit scholarships that you can apply for?

[haughty bison]

there are but im pretty sure ur automatically considered for them

[still canyon]

I got an email saying early april

but that was on Feb 7th so I don't know if things changed

[short rover]

When does Ross RD come?

[shadow shore]

some ppl say the 28th

[distant mica]

[lunar sand]

[worldly spire]

yea got caught in 4k lookin at inspect

[lunar sand]

😭

its probably server sided

[upbeat marsh]

next week friday

haven't seen anything that would point towards tmr

[crude nacelle]

Dont worry about that lowk

I rushed my last activity cus it was like 11:58

put some random shi down

😭

it was like pickleball but spelled wrong so like Pikkleball or sum like that

[shadow shore]

Yeah lmao

I got deferred

[fringe tangle]

this is the only college i’ve applied to where im still waiting on a decision date

[shadow shore]

lmao yeah

umich was good about it EA tho

they gave us a date and stuff

[distant mica]

Expect next Friday

[ripe temple]

I don't recall them giving an actual date. They did the same thing as they did with RD, say it's coming around late January (similar to how they said it'd come late March).

[verbal whale]

does anyone know the likeliness of admissions from ea to rd?? like do u have a better chance if u applied ea then got deferred into rd? or idek i am just hopeless

[fringe tangle]

my app here was a shot in the dark anyways

so idc too much

[ripe temple]

There's like no admissions advantage between EA and RD (per their website unless it's Ross which I got no clue on) so assume it's the same as if you applied RD.

[odd egret]

looking like 28th for mich?

rapture is coming..

[wraith lily]

i mean they do review an additional loci, the acceptance rate for deferred applicants will naturally be higher since they provide comparatively more info about themselves

[ripe temple]

More information doesn't mean better so no it would not be naturally higher.

[winged magnet]

mechanic are there baddies at umich

[mystic ibex]

Not him but there’s hella bruv

Look at the instas

Dear god

[wraith lily]

dawg has their priorities straight

[wraith lily]

i mean i'm sure a better perspective on the applicant will help their admissions right?

[winged magnet]

exactly its for my future

[winged magnet]

r u into abgs

[distant mica]

There’s baddies at every big school you’re fine

Mgl ain’t wrong tho

[thorn bridge]

is it tromorrowe or 2/28?

[distant mica]

99% sure next week

[dense stone]

go to any SEC school

OU 🤩

[ripe temple]

It might, it might not. Also you do understand RD applicants are able to do LOCI right?

[ripe temple]

There are beautiful people here yes.

[wraith lily]

uh...when they're waitlisted right?

[spiral crescent]

no

[ripe temple]

Nope

[wraith lily]

ok im so confused

[spiral crescent]

everyone submits a LOCI deferred or not

[ripe temple]

It is optional ofc

But pretty much

[wraith lily]

damnnn

low-key that is genuinely so logical

[spiral crescent]

lol

[wraith lily]

omg is this a umich thing or do other colleges do it too?

[spiral crescent]

MIT does it as well

schools where applying early is the same as applying RD

[wraith lily]

dude that actually makes so much sense damnn

[spiral crescent]

like USC for example doesn’t allow any updates from any students, EA or not

[wraith lily]

yeahh i see

lol i got worried it was for all schools

cause i aint sent any loci to my rd colleges lol

[ripe temple]

Usually they'll email you that you can, but you should also check the website of your colleges to see if they allow LOCI for RD

[wraith lily]

i see

pretty sure i'm in the clear since nothin popped up in the portals

[ripe temple]

Well it doesn't have to pop in the portals. Some are just vague and want it through email

[wraith lily]

i see

crazy how i'm discovering this literally days before the decisions arrive lol

[haughty bison]

LEAD scholars getting discontinued

thats crazy

[honest bramble]

UVA MCINTIRE or UMICH ROSS

[ripe temple]

Ross is the more prestigious school but whichever is financially best for you would be the better choice

[tacit nimbus]

The federal government is cracking down on scholarships with “diversity buzzwords”

[tacit nimbus]

This is really sad

I wonder if this will impact low income scholarships

[haughty bison]

ross bc ur not guaranteed into mcintre

[tacit nimbus]

^

Michigan is also just a better location college-wise

[haughty bison]

if ur instate uva and get rlly good aid

[honest bramble]

not for me

[haughty bison]

id consider uva

[honest bramble]

im a southern guy

[tacit nimbus]

What do you think this means for the other alumni council scholarships?

[haughty bison]

if they have something about diversity

might be cooked ngl

but if they're small maybe they'll survive

[grand lintel]

sucks that they waited until after we already submitted the applications 🙃

whole situation sucks really

[haughty bison]

I forgot to apply

[west otter]

Is there an honors program for the coe

[ripe temple]

Mhm

https://honors.engin.umich.edu/

[west otter]

Oh so i dont do that till soph yr

[ripe temple]

Mhm

[thorn bridge]

Mhm

[shadow shore]

has umich given a date yet?

for RD

[ripe temple]

If it doesn't come out tomorrow, it'll most likely come out on March 28th. Either way, their official date is late March so expect between now and March 31st

[shadow shore]

yeah i know

[limpid wasp]

its got a chance for tmr?

[shadow shore]

not much

[ripe temple]

Incredibly unlikely but who knows.

[shadow shore]

it looks like last year it was 29th

if i had to guess it would be last friday of March

[distant mica]

Probably next Friday

[tame sage]

Would our portal shut down? Like how it did for the week for EA

[ripe temple]

According to the EA and last year trend, probably. But, again, who knows.

[normal dune]

is it the consensus that it’s happening next friday?

[wraith lily]

pretty much

or april 1

[junior thistle]

do bsps decisions get sent out at the same time as LSA or Ross?

[twilit island]

did anyone get the engineering scholarship of honor perchance

[spiral crescent]

i did

[stuck rune]

Does anyone know if umich honors program and 4 year renewable scholarships are on a rolling basis?

[civic orbit]

UMich Honors Program I know for a fact is not. There are two more decision release days, April 3rd and 29th I believe, whichever you fall into depends on when you applied. If you were deferred at any point then it is the 29th

[outer mural]

wait umich honors is coming out april 29th?

[civic orbit]

that’s the final deadline listed depending on when you applied

https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/applytohonors/deadlines-requirements/

Here’s a link explaining it better

[outer mural]

thank you!!

[distant mica]

We ready for next Friday??🔥

[tame sage]

No

[twilit island]

yay congratulations! :D do you know if decisions are rolling/still rolling out?

[spiral crescent]

im not sure.. i got mine sent to my personal email on 3/6

i might check ur UM email as well

[dawn basin]

Oh you can access that? I thought it was only once you committed

[spiral crescent]

idk i havent accessed mine lol

[dawn basin]

Maybe just me but I tried to once and it gave me an error

[twilit island]

i'm pretty sure it's only once you commit :(

[twilit island]

thank you so much ^_^ (and also congratulations on committing to yale!)

[spiral crescent]

havent officially commited yet but thank you!!!

i know that even if you didnt get eng scholarship of honor you can always reach out to the coe scholarship fund and ask!

[twilit island]

oh mb 😭 even still :D

[spiral crescent]

and i think there are some scholarship applications that open up after you commit. there's also the m-engin program that you would do over the summer that covers 2k of ur tution!

[twilit island]

wait that's actually a lot of great information, thank you so much :'D

i need to lock in on scholarships ahhh it's getting late

but thank you so so much uni :D

this helps a lot!

[urban birch]

I really hope umich accepts me man

[outer storm]

does anyone know the acceptence rate for rd

for cs advance selection

[spiral crescent]

cs advance selection is chosen after you are accepted

[shadow shore]

chat how are we feeling about UMich

[slate minnow]

cooked

but also they posted the cube on their insta which they always do the week of decisions

[urban birch]

If Michigan accepts me I promise I’ll quit watching reels and do something with my life

[distant mica]

Same I’ll get off of all social media if they accept me

[spiral crescent]

after michigan accepted me i started watching more reels

[slate minnow]

i’ll spend more time on social media if when they accept me

[distant mica]

Facts when they accept all of us

[urban birch]

Its looking difficult for me tbh

[wraith lily]

oh they did?? damnn its close

[outer mural]

https://www.instagram.com/p/DHitR0ExlFd/?igsh=cm9wYTNicXo2emc1

its friday isn’t it

[empty axle]

yeah thy only release on fridays and thats the last friday before april first so yes

[distant mica]

Usually they post the cube on the UMich admissions account

I mean decisions kind of have to be this week so

[tame sage]

3.6 gpa and a hell of a story to tell

Umich here I come

[outer storm]

any ib applicants here?

if so do yk about predicted scores

and if umich considers them

[ripe temple]

https://admissions.umich.edu/apply/first-year-applicants/ap-ib-credit/ib-guidelines

[outer storm]

no that's for final test scores

after our results come out in july

[ripe temple]

Right, and your results will appear on the transcript of examination grades right? At which you're able to send after like most do?

In short, yes.

[outer storm]

yeah no ik that

im asking about predicted scores

and if umich considers them

when admitting students

cause ap/other courses usually dont hv them

and some other schools, especially in the us, dont consider them

some do, some dont, thats why i was confused

[karmic yew]

is it hard to transfer to umich

[haughty bison]

fr

[spiral crescent]

dont think its suuuper hard

[ionic nova]

Do AP scores for college credits complete the LSA distribution requirements or are they just extra credits to fill total credit requirements

Its been confusing trying to figure it out

[ashen blade]

is umich decisou out

i not get anyhthing yet

[slate minnow]

it’s this friday

[spiral crescent]

probably friday

[ashen blade]

oh tysm

[wraith lily]

dawgg how many colleges did ya apply to omg

[shadow shore]

i would sell a proportion of my soul for michigan acceptance

[ashen blade]

20 common app + 8 UC + 10 csu

[wraith lily]

damnn

btw what's csu?

[ashen blade]

cal state

had fee waiver so js went crazy w it

[wraith lily]

damnn that's fire

man 38 apps is insane, i was strugglin with 10 lmaoo

[ashen blade]

nah bro 8 UC is all the same 4 essays

10 csu has no essays, just grades

and 1-2 common app is no essay too

[shadow shore]

lmaooo

honestly fire but you do know you have to choose one eventually

genuine question tho do u feel that applying to that many unis helped you in the end?

[ashen blade]

yeah i think i had hella time so i js applied

all the uni i applied is cuz ik ppl there

or i just liked the college

i didnt have a school where even if i got in i wouldnt go

[distant mica]

Portal isn’t even closed yet hmm

[outer mural]

portal isn’t closed

???!!!

[distant mica]

No way they push it that far

[wraith lily]

dawg even essays for 18 common app colleges is no joke tho. fair dues 👏

[tame sage]

It should close at like Wednesday

[spiral crescent]

they posted the cube tho

[outer mural]

on admissions?

[empty axle]

well no but it has to be friday they said before april 1st

[outer mural]

😢😢

[jovial condor]

@simple hatch wassup now

[twin vault]

Is the cube indicative of decisions releasing?

[spiral crescent]

i think so

[twin vault]

Hooray

All the rest of my decisions this week then

[wraith lily]

yeahh this week gonna be craaazy

[tawdry sandal]

It’s Friday correct?

[simple hatch]

Wassup

[daring basalt]

[pine widget]

If you got deferred then yes

[shadow shore]

i got deferred both lol

[shadow shore]

you were, but the deadline was march 1st

[jovial condor]

[outer mural]

[distant mica]

Brooo what a sell

[worldly spire]

[jovial condor]

they trolling fr

thats what the portal has been saying since I got deferred

[wraith lily]

nahh they have to be releasing on friday

no way they release on april lmao i'll commit crimes against humanity fr

[outer mural]

if portal isn’t closed

then we assume it’s the following till proof

[signal breach]

im gonna send in my app today pray for me guys 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

[odd geyser]

They’ve said by early April

They usually release it the day after Ivy Day (March 27 this year) unless if it’s diff this year

By early April they mean early April at the latest

I believe

[tawdry sandal]

😹

[outer mural]

i need a confirmed date michigan..

[tacit nimbus]

It’s going to be Friday or April 1st

[distant mica]

Oh my god Michigan RD could be on April fools day!!

[tacit nimbus]

That would be cruel

[late path]

Holy - How did I not register that as a possibility until now?

[odd geyser]

I did a bit of searching, here is what I found

[upbeat marsh]

yes they don't shut down for rd

but they ain't follow past year trends for ea decision time so 🤷‍♂️

[ripe temple]

Oh...I guess the date hasn't leaked to you guys unlike me.

[outer mural]

oh….

gatekeeper 😢😢😢

[distant mica]

Pls Michigan

[thorn bridge]

so not even this week or what

[short rover]

Gatekeeping 🤣

I'm committing to a college on Friday either way though.

[fervent verge]

[glossy portal]

they trying too hard to be mysterious atp nobody thinks you're nonchalant umich

[long sparrow]

When does umich come out?

[ripe temple]

Late March/Early April

[long sparrow]

Early April?? 😫

NYU had like 100k+ n they coming out today

Who does umich think they r 😂

[ripe temple]

NYU's deadline was earlier than Michigan's

[long sparrow]

Makes sense

[ripe temple]

Also Michigan got like 115k apps this year

[long sparrow]

Okk 😔

[dawn basin]

Oh wow, do you know how many were admitted?

[ripe temple]

No, we just know how many applied, but expect the amount to be admitted to be similar or the same as last year

[dawn basin]

How many were admitted last year?

[ripe temple]

Like around 15k-16k. I would just look at the CDS

[dawn basin]

thanks

[karmic yew]

100k+ applicants for nyu??

[long sparrow]

Yeah

Apparently they had a record high

[short rover]

I got WL

From NYU

[narrow echo]

Last school

[limpid wasp]

[lethal lance]

yep

[vale knoll]

hey yall do we know when mich is coming out

there's like a 0% chance i go b/c of how expensive it is but im curious

[slate minnow]

i think friday is most likely

since they don't close down the portal for rd

[surreal thunder]

please

[shadow shore]

for my sanity friday please

this is my last school

i don't even care anymore if its good or bad, i need this to be over

[late path]

I cannot put into words how incredibly relatable this statement is.

[shadow shore]

lmao

[outer mural]

that’s so real

[shadow shore]

there have been so many Ws and so many Ls

i just need peace

[gray aurora]

have they really not released yet lmao

lowkey crazy bc i knew i got in academically in december and got my rejection in february

[crude nacelle]

wat does that even mean

u got in in december then they sent u a counter rejection in feb?

[gray aurora]

my program had a multi-step admissions process

i had to be prescreened to make sure i could make it in academically before they interviewed me

so i received the information that i passed the academic review in december, interviewed in january, and got rejected from the program in february

[crude nacelle]

oh

there's an interview?

oh wait for the specific program

[gray aurora]

for my major yes

[crude nacelle]

im chuzzing rn thats mb

[gray aurora]

youre good lol

umich still being all mum's the word during the last week of march is crazy

[crude nacelle]

why they tryna delay the decision

i mean i alr got mine back for EA

but shi was so dumb when we were tryna find out what week it was

😭

[gray aurora]

this is wild

wdym you dont even start releasing until late march and even then its rolling

[wraith lily]

omg will they actually release it in april??

[gray aurora]

go ahead and read the screenshot again for me

[crude nacelle]

I mean this is last year

they might switch it up ykwim

[wraith lily]

wait this is last year's post?

omg bruhhhhhh wtff ya scared me dawg

[gray aurora]

yes

[wraith lily]

bruhh aight i thought this was released recently

[wide reef]

When is it

[mental elk]

Is UMich confirmed for tmrw?

[outer storm]

Guys, if I applied for both CS Advanced Selection for the engineering school and Ross preferred admission, could that negatively impact my chances for CS admission? If so, should I email them to clarify that I prefer CS?

[mental elk]

I feel like it's a bit late for that

[ripe temple]

It's pretty much too late

[outer storm]

Damn ok

[wild pier]

Just double if you get in. Getting into ross is huge

[remote fable]

Are we still speculating it’s tmr?

[tawdry sandal]

let’s hope so guys

[surreal thunder]

I'm donating 100 to charity if I get in umich

[unborn estuary]
