<p>Browsing the board, I've noticed a lot of people saying that UMich is mainly stats...do you know how they factor in EC's if they are really good as well as an outstanding recommendation letter from GC? My stats are relatively low for UMich standards, so I'm sort of worrying that I'm going to get deferred...I also submitted my application late (November 22...complete by 30th). Thanks.</p>
<p>Michigan's admissions process is a pretty good balance of public and private school in that stats are still a bit more important than EC's (I don't think the app lets you go that in-depth on EC's), but multiple people will review your application and you can bet your EC's will get a better look than at probably any other state university, but not the same consideration as they would at a private school.</p>
