Fall 2013 Transfer Thread

<p>I was just accepted today to the college of engineering! So excited. Go blue!</p>

<p>@cabowabo123 You must be thrilled!! Congrats!! :)</p>

<p>Congrats! I can’t believe you were deferred to begin with.</p>

<p>Does anyone know if they will release decisions during spring break?</p>

<p>Does anyone know if having been accepted for transfer before (Winter '13) will help my chances after applying again (Spring '13)? Even if my GPA went down a bit (3.58 to 3.47)?</p>

<p>@michfan12 I think the decisions keep coming out a constant basis because it is rolling. The wait has definitely been killer.</p>

<p>@Toofast ok, awesome! I definitely feel you on that though. I just can’t wait to receive a decision. When did you apply?</p>

<p>@michfan12 jan 22nd so probably part of the later batches</p>

<p>@Toofast right. They received all of my stuff the 25 of January, but I received an email a few weeks ago asking to send a mid year report form and they just received that on the 27 of February. So I have no idea when I can expect a decision.</p>

<p>So basically from what I’ve read from earlier threads, you get a decision within a week of them getting the midterm report, so you should hear sometime this week</p>

<p>I have been reading this forum the past couple days, stumbled upon it on accident but am glad I did. It is reassuring to see others getting accepted!
I am a non traditional student, I have been an EMT for years and decided to go back to school to change my career to become a teacher. Back in the day my schooling was, lets say less than par. I do not think I would have been accepted to any university in the state with the grades I had.
Now I am at UM-Flint
I have a 3.61 with 36 credits and 12 this semester pending. I also plan on taking 9 more credits this spring/summer.
I do not have any EC that most would have due to being in a different place in life.
I have however been a head coach of a varsity hockey team for the past 7 years.
I guess another EC could be “father of 2”
Also as I mentioned I am an EMT as for my job.
I have legacy with my wife she got her undergrad at UM, got her masters at GV only because UM did and still does not offer her program (physician assistant)
I figure my chances are pretty slim and would be ok staying at UM-Flint, but do not always want to wonder “what if” had I not applied.
Good luck to everyone still waiting on a decision!
I look forward to seeing you all accepted!</p>

<p>That would be awesome if the turn around time is that fast! @Toofast hopefully it does and hopefully a decision comes soon for you also.</p>

<p>This anticipation is killing me! Any good news, or any at all?</p>

<p>From what I have picked up in this forum, decisions usually come on Thursdays and Fridays? Any truth to this?</p>

<p>Just got my acceptance!!</p>

<p>michfan12 congrats bro!</p>

<p>michfan12 Congrats!!</p>

<p>Great news Michfan12!! :slight_smile:
I hope the rest of us hear something today!</p>

<p>Hey guys,
I just got my acceptance this morning. Best of luck to the rest of you all.</p>

<p>@trumboma Congrats! Are you LSA?
And do you guys think it’s a bad thing when they don’t ask for your mid-year report?</p>
