is anyone on this board anymore?? anyone know about the change of major screen? is that true?? lets get some convo flowing here
I just checked and can still change majors, but it might be too early (if that is still a true test). just waiting for Friday with my fingers crossed!
do we think Friday is the day… I am hearing maybe Monday…
Based on the last few years, the ED II was never later than the last Friday of February. Since the Admissions website says late February, I’m convinced it’s this Friday night.
The CDS for the incoming Freshman in Fall of 2020, shows an overall ED acceptance rate of 61%. The total acceptance rate for the entire class was 33% so we almost doubled our chances with ED.
Did anyone hear how many total applications they received this cycle?

I also wonder how many applicants switched to ED2 after an EA deferral. Seems like people are a little more nervous this year with all the deferrals, so more might have switched. We chose ED2 back in November, but I imagine all ED2 are put into one pool.
We chose ED II after the EA deferral. What cinched it for us (aside from the visit) was being deferred by what used to be an easier target College for my son. I’m not sure there are many easier targets for anyone this year.
Thankfully we now have an excellent alternative just in case Miami doesn’t come through.
So many deferrals this year, even from those safety and target schools! Hopefully, ED2 pulls through.
All fair points. This is a tough year for all colleges due to the overwhelming amount of applications.
Has anyone heard how many total applicants UM has has this year?
49,000 according to Miami Today

Thank you so much. Very kind of you to send this.
so–anyone not able yet to change their major on the portal?
I can still get in… I am wondering if this is even true anymore?
I wonder if they caught on… but yes, it still can be changed.

What is Por?
Any word on news or portal change of date stuff …
I’m pretty sure decisions are coming out tomorrow at about 4pm EST, according to last year EDII release date.

That’s the talk and likely but nothing official
I read somewhere UM had 49,000 apps this year - 9,000 more than last.
With appx 7hours to go, this thread is so quiet. But understandable as I’m sure for many that converted EA deferred to ED2, it’s been a long road since Nov 1. Fwiw, can change (major) on portal. And gd luck to all!
