Fall 2013 Transfer Thread

<p>Indeed, according to the admissions office, the usual indicator of success as a sophomore transfer is if you were admissible/close to admissible as a freshman candidate. So most people that didn’t get in as freshmen should probably apply as junior transfers. I wish you and your daughter the best of luck!</p>

<p>Got accepted yesterday… Not as excited as I thought I would be… Good luck to everyone still waiting :)))</p>

<p>Umich21, I am tempted to slap you with a wet noodle, my friend! Congratulations! If my son ever gets accepted I am going to do a happy dance, plaster Facebook with exclamation points and go on a major shopping spree to Wolverine Den.</p>

<p>Congratulations Corey! How many credits did you transfer with?</p>

<p>@villageMom lol I probably deserve that, but dont get me wrong I’m exicted just didn’t have the reaction I expected to have anyways thank you:) And good luck to your son I sincerely hope he gets in.</p>

I talked to the admissions rep for the School of Kinesiology and she said decisions should be out in the next 1-2 weeks! best of luck!</p>

<p>Ohh kk. Thanks for asking Lakergang. Best luck for you too!! Please make a post here if you get the decision. I will post mine also.</p>

<p>@lakergang Is there an admissions rep for LSA?</p>

<p>Are the rest of us basically border line applicants left till the end?</p>

<p>@hopeforthebest94
I’m not sure honestly. LSA probably has a couple since they are one of the bigger schools.
@Toofast
I think we might be. It just depends on when you got your application completed and in.</p>

<p>@Lakergang Where did you get the info about the admin rep of the school of Kinesiology? The waiting is so torturing :-[</p>

<p>@hopeforthebest94
I went on the kinesiology website and found the admissions rep’s email and sent her one! She replied almost instantly.</p>

<p>@lakergang I can’t find that on LSA’s website… Anyway, good luck and hope we will both be admitted :-)</p>

<p>Does anyone know how many credits is consider a sophomore transfer?</p>

<p>Do you think earlier acceptance for transfer (Winter '13) would help my chances for being admitted to Spring '13, for which I’ve already applied/submitted a Mid-Term Report? I was asked for the report apparently because my Fall 2012 grades were a bit lower than my freshman year but I sent in the Mid-Term Report with current grades in my classes. Not only were they better than my dissenting Fall grades but overall the GPA I would get from them is better than one of the two semesters that got me in for Winter originally, which were both referred to by an admissions rep. as “solid”. I know this is a lot to take in but any input would be of great help.</p>

<p>Does anyone have any idea when Transfers usually hear once all their materials are in?</p>

<p>Newtocollege, my son’s community college liason to UM said that it can take 8 to 10 weeks to hear back after UM receives all of your materials. I may or may not have gasped in despair. That would put my son at mid to late April.</p>

<p>For all those who are accepted? Anyone looking to possibly room next year?</p>

<p>@trumboma Yes, please! Although I haven’t been been accepted just yet, I’d love to start making arrangements.</p>

<p>@trumboma are you a guy or girl lol :)</p>
