# austere swift how cracked were u?

Okay maybe I’m not cracked, but I got into cmu and jhu and waitlisted for half the ivies. So maybe at least I’m qualified to be on umich waitlist, right?

oh then that makes sense

just got into umich engineering as intl
i couldn't choose between umich engineering and UCLA math of computation
i know umich engineering is good but the weather's too cold
can anyone provide some suggestions plz 🙏🏻

remote flame
# frank compass just got into umich engineering as intl i couldn't choose between umich enginee...

Honestly those are two amazing options! anddd those are two very different experiences, so it’s less about “which is better” and more about fit I’d lean away from University of Michigan if you’re already worried about the weather (it sounds minor but 4 years of long winters can genuinely wear on you-- you can ask ppl who've never been to mich lol) Michigan engineering is amazing, but it’s also pretty intense (as engineering is)
UCLA gives you way better day-to-day quality of life + a flexible math/CS path, and you can still end up in very similar careers if that's where you want to go! I also heard switching majors at UCLA is feasible

#

Honestly comes down to whether you value the structured engineering route or overall lifestyle/"fit" more

When does scholarships come out

Does Michigan weigh financials as a big factor for admission

I’m just curious cuz I got flat out rejected by Michigan but got into better schools 💀

#

i dont think umich yield protects, theyre just a state college that favors state students

#

and their rd is super competitive from all the ea deferrals so they might prioritize thoes deferrals over people originally from rd

they dont take locis right

ik they had a supp form for deferred

"We will not accept any additional documents from you unless specifically requested, as they will not impact your final decision." does this mean that I shouldn't do a LOCI for waitlist?

zealous trench
frank compass
#

I wanna do computer engineering at UMich but am also afraid that it would be competitive to get in (cuz it’s first year engineering in freshman year)
If I were to study at UCLA Math of Computation, I would prolly switch major to CompE

#

And my parents don’t care about tuition that much they let me choose

zealous trench
#

For computer engineering, both programs are heavily grade inflated imo, but umich culture is less competitive than UCLA. However, UCLA much better at RF, but Umich clears in embedded/IC/robotics

#

When it comes to location, if money isn’t an issue. LA is much better

#

@frank compass you should visit both campuses and see which one vibes with you better

#

Also what field are you doing within CpE

#

Also when it comes to company connection wise, you’re looking at a lot of IC/robotics companies for umich

#

For ucla, its majority defense

frank compass

besides environment i guess im only worried about interns and jobs and how strong is their software program

This is what I would use to see how good their research is

UCSD and Berkeley is way better by a mile

that's fair me neither, i got in there too lol..

#

their aid is good tho

frank compass

🤣

#

i guess it's still ucla vs. umich

#

💀

zealous trench
#

USC and UCLA are both really nice schools, but they're not known for AI/software

frank compass
#

yea 🥲

#

im also thinking of doing quant at ucla

zealous trench

uh

#

uhhh

frank compass

#

im not sure about ucla for quant.

#

i dont even think ucla is a target/ranked for quant

#

it's cmu's fault
i would've gone there but im waitlisted

but when it comes to ucla, i dont think ive heard people doing quant there

i dont even think california is even that good for quant outside of berkeley and stanford

#

im looking at ranking rn

frank compass
#

i see

frank compass
#

umich still better 😀

#

i guess it's umich then

zealous trench
#

what major did you get in for umich

#

wait nvm

#

cpe

frank compass
#

it's engineering first year

#

no umich is undeclared for the first year of engineering for all students

zealous trench
#

ah i see

frank compass
#

yeah in terms of academics umich > ucla

zealous trench
#

LA has a better city life imo, and weather

frank compass
#

yeah 🥲

#

i would have to give up LA

zealous trench
#

highkey im living in LA for undergrad

#

uh

#

i wanna get out

#

:D

#

but it's mainly COL and people i don't like

#

which is subjective

frank compass

for me, umich would have better aid than ucla

does umich take locis?

i have to write mine but i didnt see them saying not to write one in the waitlist faq section on their website

empty flame
#

its on the application im pretty sure

#

actually thats just for deferrals idk for waitlist im sorry meltingsob

frank compass
#

so like if im certain that im taking Computer Engineering at Umich after First-Year Engineering, do I needa pass through any selections or am I free to choose any engineering major (like CompE)

#

cuz im afraid that i wouldn't be able to take CompE after First-Year

radiant laurel

#

if you get it, switch out

#

that's my advice

#

basically, if you want to be with engineers 24/7 and want to live in peace/quiet, then it's for you

#

might be a pain in the ass if you want to get your GEs out of the way and all your classes is on central

radiant laurel
#

It’s practically next to smtd

#

I lowkey gotta live with it

radiant laurel

#

So like

#

You don’t have to live next to the building

#

You can live in central campus and just commute to the music building for practice/claszes

I was there in the summer for 10 weeks and 3 days in March

#

Honestly 25 degrees in umich felt like 50 degrees in LA

#

They exaggerated how cold it would be

#

I was playing football in the big house at 25F when it was snowing

#

And I had a t shirt on

I think the temperature is similar to Boston, but Michigan is definitely a bit colder...

I am also from LA before I moved to Boston. My best advice is to get a winter puffer, a pair of winter boots, a scarf to keep your neck warm, and gloves when you have to walk in <15F weather

#

I did survive the nor'easter with those (And wore my lab safety google because when snow + high wind = hits eye, it hurts like hell and your visibility will be rekt)

i would say that when i first called the UM office regarding appeals they asked me if i fell under couple specific circumstances and that they would only really consider an appeal if u did. idk how applicable it would be to most students but luckily it did for me so yea

attempting to physically contact the admissions office can come off as weird, even if you're not being malicious. Could you instead see if you could, idk... talk to the international AO that handles your region of the world? Like beforehand? Even that might not be too useful.

I'd ask this Q in #🌻-app-questions especially, in case you want help from the college counselors on here who will have much better advice for this than we will

Thank you so much for the email and your continued interest in the University of Michigan! After you are placed on the admissions waitlist, we will not accept any additional documents from you unless specifically requested, as they will not impact your final decision. If space becomes available to admit students from the waitlist, we will consider our initial evaluations as we select candidates for admission. Once we get a clear picture of how many admitted students fail to meet the enrollment deposit deadline, we'll know how many waitlisted applicants to whom we'll offer admission. In a typical year, waitlisted applicants are notified of their final admissions decision by mid-June. Learn more on our Waitlisted Applicants FAQ webpage.

Since we do not typically admit students from the waitlist until mid-June, we encourage you to make enrollment plans at another college or university in case space does not become available in our incoming class. Please keep in mind that if we do not have space to admit you this year as a first-year student, we will welcome your application in the future as a transfer applicant. More information about transferring to the University of Michigan can be found online. We wish you all the best in your future educational endeavors.

Thank you and Go Blue!!!

Hard time choosing between umich and ucla engineering 😭

that's the concern 😭😭😭

#

I wanna know if michigan's engineering is like MUCH BETTER than ucla or not

vestal dawn
#

which engineering are you?

frank compass
#

CompE

# frank compass I see

i'd say school culture/spirit will be stronger at mich, but ucla will still have tons of school pride

umich is a top ranked public school (and top ranked school in general) but so is ucla- a degree from either will open the door to opportunities. it's a difference of like #1 public school vs #2 public school. both schools have really strong engineering programs.

UCLA is in a much better location geographically- it's on a coast so that might be better for flights home depending on where ur from + weather in california is almost always beautiful

Ann Arbor will have more of a "college town" experience that revolves around the school- but it is cold as hell in michigan.

if you care about athletics- michigan just won the men's national championship in basketball, and ucla won the women's national championship in basketball. I believe michigan also won the football championship quite recently?

both schools will be similar in cost, but consider that california will be considerably more expensive to live in

i don't know anything about the courseload/program of study at either - it might be helpful to see if one school requires you to take a bunch of geneds or if a school has classes you like better

regardless, there is not really a wrong choice here - you will have a great time at either and be set up for success. figure out the day-to-day things you care about the most and see which school you like better. best of luck!

# frank compass I wanna know if michigan's engineering is like MUCH BETTER than ucla or not

If u look at purely at rankings. Short answer is no. Both are around 10-15 overall in engineering, and around top 10 in comp e. Basically no difference at all. Do consider if ucla is a better location in terms of internship and opportunities(didn’t do deep research into this), and whether u are doing graduate comp e(which I would say internship does not have that much waiting in ur decision), and ur personal preference(if it is a strong feeling, go with the one u prefer because you might not study well in an environment u hate)

#

Just some of the types of analysis I did when choosing my engineering schools too

frank compass
#

I see. honestly the problem is that I was admitted to Math of Computation major for UCLA not CompE
