<p>You applied in November to the school of Kinesiology with a 1430 SAT score, 3.9 GPA...you have a good chance of getting in.</p>

<p>What I am curious about is why you applied to Engineering at Duke but kinesiology at UMich? I hope you don't think you can get into engineering through the back door. I know someone who tried to do this and he had to reapply.</p>

<p>You should have applied to Michigan engineering. You would have gotten in anyway.</p>
