EA applicants still waiting?

<p>Hello all,</p>

<p>I applied to UMich mid- to late-August and still haven't received any news. I've activated (and have been checking daily!) my WolverineAccess account. My friends who applied much later than I did already received their decisions.</p>

<p>I haven't had much luck contacting them, either; at 10:30 am or 3:30pm Central Time I'm often told to call back during office hours: 8am-5pm. And it takes two weeks to receive a not-very-helpful email reply. The one time I was able to get in touch with an admissions' officer, she told me she didn't have any information and that I should sit and wait for their decision.</p>

<p>Should I wait until the 21st to start getting worried? Is it worth calling them once more to make sure my decision wasn't just lost in the mail?</p>

<p>Thanks. :)</p>

<p>Yeah it is worth calling. you should have found out by now</p>

<p>msybr your decision is still pending.. but you should have heard back, i mean if hey want to defer you they would have done it by now...or accept</p>

<p>No letter or "decision" online for my daughter either and her application was complete by 10/19.</p>

<p>When you go online, you can get someone in admissions for a live chat: It's called livehelp...You have to search around for it, but they can help you more easily....If you go to the website, and look for FAQ's and type something in, it then has a tab on top (like a file folder) that lets you hit "live help"...It takes a little while, but they will respond....FYI, don't close the window or you lose the connection...Good luck!</p>

<p>if you call and they say your decision is in the mail, you're deferred.
otherwise, i'm pretty sure the decision is still pending. they are terribly slow, but they still have six days to get the rest of the applications done.</p>

<p>I wonder if they considered me EA? They recieved my actual application on 10/26 buy got my transcript and stuff on 11/12. I kind of like it though because every time I dont get anything I just tell myself that Im not EA. It works out perfectly.</p>

<p>wait, i thought if it was you get a letter in the mail, that was rejection and defer...</p>

<p>don't worry, i sent in my application 10/31/2007 at 11:18 pm, they got my other stuff like 11/04/07? ish, and they lost my teacher rec, so i was going to fax it, but i asked about if i was still EA and they said yes, umich finally got my teacher rec on 12/08/2007 (?) and i got in last thursday 12/13/2007</p>

<p>edit : i mean 12/07/07 not 12/08/07</p>

<p>Thanks everyone for your input. :)</p>

<p>I'll try one more phone call tomorrow. And to Rodney--I had no idea that feature existed! I'll go check it out right now.</p>

<p>Thanks again! :)</p>
