help? called michigan

<p>so i called michigan today and they said they have been deferring a lot of people and she explained the mich gpa that its only soph and junior year grades. she said that im still in the competitive running so i guess thats a good sign that they didnt just defer me but tomorrow is 12 weeks and im nervous</p>

<p>sat: 1460 (800 math 660 verbal)
rank: 16/496
School weighted gpa: 4.38/4.6
Umich Gpa: 3.5 <----so bad i thought it was higher</p>

<p>do i have a shot still?</p>

<p>Your class rank and SAT are certainly excellent. I would not be surprised if you were accepted. But one never knows for sure.</p>

<p>In state, you're in for sure. Even out of state is no problem.</p>

<p>Golubb, Michigan admissions are GPA driven, not SAT driven. There are several students on this forum who have been defered with similar stats to mdg. So to say that he/she is going to be accepted is missleading. This said, mgd has a good chance of getting</p>

<p>The person you talked to at the admissions office said that you're "still in the competitive running?" I had my app processed on 12/03...so it's been about 12 weeks for me as well...i also have almost identical stats (3.5 UMich GPA, 1450) and i received an email from them last week apologizing for the delay...the interesting thing is that Alexandre has said that a few ppl here have gotten deferred with similar stats--so i guess it could really go either way--but my friend got in with a 3.5/1450 from NJ (though he applied a few weeks earlier than us)...i hope we both get in</p>

<p>mdg and stellar what towns u live in cuz stella i also live in nj and mdg ur gpa system is sreal similar to mine not many like it any chance u go to the freehold regional high school district</p>

<p>Nope...i go to West Windsor-Plainsboro North (#1) but i have friends in the freehold regional district...are u still waiting on a decision as well?</p>

<p>chill out u guys will both get in, i applied mid nov with a 3.6 umich gpa and a 1330 and i got my acceptance late jan. and im from jersey too.</p>

<p>yea but i applied nov 10 prob same as u and still havent heard over a month and half after u.</p>

<p>yea well this will sound weird and maybe even selfish sry but i was accepted to my ed school and am about ot remove myself from all my pplied schools but i was hoping to ehar from michingan before that as a sense of reassurance since by this time umich has def. seen my midyeasr report and it is my belief that if umich accepts me i can be a little less nevrous that amy decision at my ed school will . not be rescinced. either way i will cancel my decison from umich its just i gotta know because im real nervous about my ed school after getting 3cs 2nd mp and a d 1st mp and im hoping that if umich is good then i dont need to worry about my ed school</p>

<p>hey i just noticed u go to marlboro, do you know andrew sharnov and jon boym, i play tennis with them.</p>

<p>yeah im in the freehold district- i sent my app nov i think like 13th or 18th but it wasnt complete til dec 7 so today is 12 wks</p>

<p>yup i know sharnov funny kid friends with a lot of his friends....boym i dont know but i do know of him....any chance u know steve morris....btw where do u go....yyea mdg im in the same boat</p>

<p>yea i know steve morris i beat him in a tournament lol, btw i go to livingston high.</p>
