Admission by Region (?)

<p>This might sound like a silly question, but does anyone know if U of M only admits a certain number of people per region? I ask because I was deferred a while ago, and although my mid-year report is pretty good, I'm worried about my chances because a lot of people from my school have already been accepted. I have a nasty feeling that U of M won't have any places left when it's time for them to finally make a decision on all the deferred applicants.</p>

<p>They give special advantages to underrepresented states, but I don't think they have a set quota or anything...</p>

<p>Yeah, I know that there are special advantages, but not disadvantages. Although there are highly qualified people that have been deferred lately. It seems like the chances really get tight as time goes on.</p>
