Does Michigan even Reject anyone?

<p>I just got my deferral letter in the mail. Nothing was on Wolverine access, not even that extra semester "trick." My scores and grades were a little lower then the Michigan standard , but came from a top public hs in NJ. My essays were also incredible. I applied end of September, but teacher recs didnt get there till like Oct 10th. I also attended a summer program at mich and took a class with mich teachers. </p>

<p>Do they reject anyone is my question. And if so, in what stat range.</p>

<p>i didnt see any in the first round (ER), when did u apply, are u intl, which school did u apply to? wat r u stats??</p>

<p>From a top public in NJ, applied to LSA. I knew Michigan was a reach for me. I had a 1280 with a 3.9 weighted gpa... however my essay was INCREDIBLE and I had a decent hook. Also tons of leadership positions/activities I didnt expect to get in really... just wondering if they reject anyone. Do I have any shot of getting in?</p>

<p>how do you know your essays were "INCREDIBLE". Did they win some sort of national award?</p>

<p>I haven't heard of anyone being rejected yet. I think that they might be kinda unstable with the state of this economy, so they aren't rejecting people until they know what they have for the RD deadline.</p>

<p>They defer, waitlist, then reject.</p>

<p>honestly essays don't count for much. and your from NJ... so thats also a huge disadvantage. IMO you should not be surprised unless you had a 3.95+/31+.</p>

<p>at 1280 SAT??
out of 1600? or 2400?</p>

<p>Clearly 1600.... I am not suprised whatsoever, Michigan was my reach school. I was just wondering if they deferred everyone or rejected people as well.</p>

<p>They will deny people the 24th. they are simply looking at who they want to admit/defer/deny based on available space</p>

<p>Guess I'm getting deferred :(</p>

<p>getting deffered? did u hear?</p>

<p>Who calls a thread that? Pretty low.</p>

<p>Hooks don't do much for Michigan it seems like.</p>

<p>I know a well known politician's daughter who got deferred yesterday..ouch.
He even attended UMich Law School..</p>

<p>Killer</p>

<p>^^was it the Gov of Illinois? haha....jk....</p>

<p>Haha, nahh. Senator actually.</p>

<p>im sure they do reject people. </p>

<p>but i dont necessarily think the people who got rejected would be on this site eagerly comparing their stats or info to other people when they are already rejected.</p>
