<p>AHHHHH ACCEPTED TO LSA!!!!
I was freaking out when I found out today!</p>
<p>It's been four months since I applied and I finally found out! woo!</p>
<p>It has been two weeks since I received my acceptance letter via email but I haven't received the official mail letter yet. Nervous~</p>
<p>It wasn't a mistake. They wouldn't accidently accept you.</p>
<p>If a decision has been made, where would it appear on Wolverine Access? I presume theres another link next to 'View Credentials'?</p>
<p>It will have a third link that says "View Decision"</p>
<p>If you see the "View Decision", before you even click it you know you have made it.</p>
<p>And the decision was posted online before the email was sent to me, so all of the obsessive WA checkers, you checking online could let you know about your acceptance a few hours before the email (it was about 5 hours for me)</p>
<p>idolfan- that isn't necessarily true. apparently someone on this forum had the third link, but the message said "a decision will arrive in the mail shortly" (which probably meant it was a rejection). i don't know if he was making it up or if that really does happen for the rejected lot. but i bet people who were rejected wouldn't come on this forum and inform us all of the manner they received the bad news.</p>
<p>I got accepted yesterday to the College of Engineering (OOS).</p>
<p>Do any of you know when scholarship information comes? I desperately need a lot of scholarships so I can have a chance at attending because my state doesn't have reciprocity with Mich.</p>
<p>I think that by now, some scholarship opportunities might be drying up. I'm not sure if they're still giving out engineering scholarships of honor or not (15,000/year for OOS), which is pretty much the only merit scholarship you can get if you're in engineering. If they are, it takes a few weeks for them to notify you (it took about a month for me).</p>
<p>darn..........o mannn hope thats not true</p>
<p>well....maybe ill stay closer here....gotta see illinois still...they are good with merit aid too...you engineers should look at UIUC</p>
<p>ill be upset if i dont even have a shot at $$...:( love michigan, but illinois does it right for chem eng. too :)

<p>yeah,How is UIUC's engineering department? tougher than UM's or not?</p>
<p>What do you mean by "tougher"? Tougher to get into? Tougher once you're in? Either way, I'd say the two schools have roughly equally tough admissions and academic standards.</p>
<p>Actually, UM engineering gives out at least 4 times as much merit money as UI.
Also, the university admissions seems to have more money. The school definitely goes after oss compared to UI. Significant dollars. UM is more expensive and jumps tuition even more for junior and senior years in engineering. Illinois freezes tuition all four years. (it would probably be 8 K more per year for oss at UM). That is nice considering that even this year UM engineering jumped by 7% versus a lower number for the rest of the university. Both are great engineering schools. UI has always been noted for its strengths in computer, electrical and physics engineering. UI is bigger overall but engineering schools appear comparable</p>

<p>Well, CollegebOund is nonresident.... FWIW, Engineering went up 5.4% for NR, which is the same amount that LS&A went up. But you're right, engineering resident went up more than it did in LSA, for residents.</p>
<p>So Hoedown, did Michigan breach the 27,000 applications plateau? If that's the case, we could be talking about a sub 45% admit rate this year.</p>
<p>What was the admit rate last year?</p>
<p>"Tuition for resident undergraduates in the College of Engineering will rise by 7 percent, and tuition for a few smaller academic units will rise by 6.5-6.6 percent. Tuition for upper-division students in the Ross School of Business will increase by 9.3 percent. The weighted average tuition increase for all undergraduate students will be 5.8 percent. Most graduate tuition rates will increase by 5 percent." From the Umich budget report for new rates for this past fall</p>
