I have a 3.7 at a top 20 university and a 33 ACT and a 3.7 high school gpa as well. I am a freshman out of state. Chances of getting in?
Anyone know when we are supposed to hear back?
I believe it is rolling, but they say 4-6 weeks after the application is complete. I submitted mine 1/6, but I am still waiting for my transcripts to be processed.
Very nervous, but also applying to LSA.
Someone please help me calm down a bit hahahahaha

Does anyone know if admissions evaluates all of your credits or just the transferable ones? Also, does anyone have an idea of how long it takes them to process transcripts?
Anyone applying anywhere else?

Sorry for being so vague but I don’t enjoy sharing so much information.
Chances?
wow so you already received your decision?
Congratulations !
How do you know when they get your scores? I sent them weeks ago and have received nothing?
@a215girl What school did you apply to? I submitted mine on 1/6, but my transcript didn’t get there until 1/30. Hopefully they will be that quick for everyone.
@packardsy how do you know when your stuff is there? submitted on sunday and have received nothing.
@nbph216 I called the admission office to confirm that my stuffs were all there and complete !
@nbph216 You can check on wolverine access or you can call and ask
Under my wovlerine access, the only thing it says it has is ACT scores though everything else has been sent. Anyone else have this?
@nbph216 Same here. It says transcripts not received for me and my IB scores aren’t posted either. My ACT is too. My final common app was submitted 1/29 but everything else was sent before so maybe they just have to play matchmaker. I’m hoping at least
Literally woke up crying and threw up and my roommate had to help me calm down because I had a nightmare that parts of my application got lost in the mail. Maaaaaaaan
@Chipperine @nbph216 my transcripts were sent on 1/20 and uploaded today, I think somebody previously posted about the process time for materials being around 2 weeks.
