2017 Freshman Admissions Changes

Hi!

I am currently a Junior in HS and the U of M will likely be my first choice school when I’m applying next year. I’ve read on the U’s website that they will be changing the admissions cycle to having two separate deadlines (Oct. 31 and Dec. 15) and that people who have applied within those two time periods will get decisions by Jan. 31 and March 31, respectively. My main question is, does anyone know if the U will still be doing rolling admissions with decisions beginning to come out in Oct., or will it be more like UW-Madison where everyone gets their decisions at the same time in January and March? If anyone has talked to an admissions counselor about this or knows any additional info, it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Was wondering the same thing! Just learned of these changes this morning. Sounds more like UW-Madison, doesn’t it?

Yes, it does. The wording on the website is very similar to UW Madison’s.
