<p>How exactly does it work? How do the MAKE you commit if accepted? Also what is the deadline, and how much more favorably does admissions look upon it?</p>
<p>Adam</p>
<p>Applying before November 1st, there is no commitment if accepted, just early notification by end of December if your accepted, deferred, or rejected. This gives students who are deferred or rejected the option to further and strengthen their application with University of Michigan and/ or other universities.</p>
<p>So they did away with ED?</p>
<p>Michigan uses early response. It’s basically the same thing as early action I think (no restrictions or anything).</p>
<p>Also,note that Michigan does rolling admissions.</p>
<p>That means pretty much the earlier you apply, the earlier you get notified. And the later you apply, the less spots there are available for more qualified people (generally speaking), and the harder for you to get in.</p>
<p>That’s what happened to my friend. She applied last minute. In-state, 3.8 GPA/34 ACT with good ECs and rejected, but she got into Wellesly. Go figure. XD</p>
<p>Yeah, I plan on having everything in early October to avoid that.</p>
<p>if I apply to Umich on rolling admission, can I still apply to a different school for early decision?</p>
<p>Yes you can.</p>
<p>Some ED schools (Brown comes to mind) will not let you apply EA anywhere. However, you can still apply rolling to any college. ED schools can’t fault you for having all of your applications submitted in October.</p>
<p>cool. thanks, UMDAD</p>
