Any news on how many EA applicants this year?

Has Michigan released that information? It has been 25,000 the last couple of years, but I wonder if there has been any changes this year. Also, for the last few years, Michigan has released EA decisions on the third Friday of December, which would be today. Are they going to do the same this year or are they postponing it to next Friday, December 23?

I’m not sure about this year, but I’m very sure that there were at least 33,000 EA applications last year. An admissions counselor told me this at an event I attended in February. Also, it looks unlikely that they will release today, but the 23rd is pretty late. I’m guessing anywhere from next Tuesday to Thursday is a safe bet.
