<p>Does anyone know if UM looks at 1st semester senior year grades when deciding on admittance? Or do they just see senior year grades (including 1st semester) after admittance?</p>
<p>I applied Early Decision and I think they look at the grades + Rigor of the courses to see how much you want to push yourself the last year.</p>
<p>I applied Early Action purposely because I wanted them to look at my first semester senior year grades because I didn’t do so well my freshmen and sophomore year in high school. </p>
<p>I’m not sure how it is for Early Decision but for EA (Early Action), they do look at your first semester senior year grades.</p>
<p>They look at your second semester senior year grades once you have been admitted.</p>
