<p>I want to say no... isn't it harder for international students to get in? and you're stats are pretty low for an out-of-state.... and your ECs don't exactly go anywhere/have a theme.. i hope you know what i mean...</p>

<p>thats just me.. you should still try, it's only 40 bucks compared to 70 bucks i paid for a rejection from my ED school....</p>

<p>Hi JKJKJK, what is your rank?</p>

<p>Michigan really emphasizes on the essays (relatively more than other schools) (and especially during Ross applications). </p>

<p>To be honest, if you were in-state, you would probably get in. But since you are international--the chances for internationals are slightly lower--those stats probably won't put you in the upper bracket.</p>

<p>But remember, personal qualities do matter much, especially at Umich. I know students who got rejected straight off the bat early by Michigan. They sent letters and re-submitted applications, one of them even broke the rules...and in the end, success does come sometimes.</p>

<p>good luck, emphasize your character through your application and essays (even though there's like one or two I think)!</p>
