It kind of sucks because I’m a double legacy and lived near campus most of my life, and the official college tours made me want to wed the school on the spot. I’m sure MSU has some great opportunities as well, but I’d accept an admission offer in a heartbeat should Michigan decide to take me off the list.
Thank you CC Community! It has been a great six years on the site, and congratulations to all those accepted 
@tchit87 @kdkdkdkdkd I definitely do not think this will make you feel better because it’s so unfair, but UMich is notorious for not accepting people they aren’t convinced will go-- people with “too good” of stats and EC’s. If they assume you’ll get into a top-10 school, they won’t accept you because they need to keep their yield high. High yield = high rank, as I’m sure you’ve heard.
@kdkdkdkdkd specifically, I just wanted to say I admire you. As a student going through this, I wished my parents would’ve helped me more, but they didn’t care where I applied and have never read any part of my applications. Your kids are so lucky to have that kind of support! Keep it up!!
For people who’s decision did not come out today when do we think the next wave will be released?

Anybody know what UMich’s acceptance rate was this year?
Way to early for the acceptance rates
People still have to May 1st to commit. Look towards August, September for those acceptance rates and sometimes later.
My Class of 2023 in-state daughter was accepted in this round last year. A friend of hers received her acceptance a few days later.
We think that the delay in the friend’s admission notification was due to the fact that the friend had also applied to a learning community.

@Yur1231 - We called and the Admissions said they were still reviewing my daughter’s application and that she would hear something “early April.” I have to tell you, the person sounded vague and said she should continue checking her email.
My daughter is saying it might b a good thing (she is an optimist) since if they were going to reject her, that would be easy and they would have done that already.
She applied in October of last year - deferred from EA, so this has been a long ride.
She has gotten into safeties but UMichigan she would go to in a heartbeat.
My daughter was deferred EA, then waitlisted for LSA.

College admissions are so weird. I have no clue how I got into UMich. I probably won’t go due to price and I’ll hopefully give someone on the waitlist a spot
Not admitted. No hard feelings here as he had several other great choices and has made his decision. Fortunately it also wasn’t his number 1 or dream school. Congrats to all those who got in and best wishes for great success.
I still haven’t heard anything. Do you guys think I will hear this upcoming week? really don’t want to have to wait another 2 weeks
