<p>Probably not, your ACT is way too low for Michigan and isn’t Michigan rolling? Anyway I suggest you get your ACT to around a 30+ to be competitive but good luck nonetheless!</p>
<p>How much is the ACT weighted? Would they take into consideration my essays, extra curricular, and GPA?</p>
<p>Trust me everything else you have is fine it’s just that your ACT is way too low. If you got your ACT to a 30+ I would be surprised if you didn’t get it. I suggest you don’t apply ED and start prepping for the ACT and then apply for regular decision or something(although i think UM is rolling). Your ACT is not just low for Michigan but also for a lot of schools. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>I agree with coola426. My son will be applying to Michigan and the school counselor told him to retake his ACT at 28 which is still low for this school.</p>
<p>Also, should I early apply to Michigan or another school? Michigan’s early deadline is 11/1 leaving no time to get in a new ACT score. Thoughts?</p>
<p>Applying to
Ohio State
Wisconsin
Michigan
Wake Forest
USC
Creighton
University of Washington
Any of those instead of Michigan for ED?</p>
