<p>Hey,</p>

<p>Most people who get in usually get in through EA (Early Action). </p>

<p>You can still apply (if it’s not too late for RD), but you probably won’t have that great of a chance. </p>

<p>In my opinion, you shouldn’t waste your money/effort.</p>

<p>Maybe ur $40 will help fund a new TV in my hall. I say go for it.</p>

<p>I’m from Michigan and if you were in state you might have a shot, but U of M is pretty stingy to out of staters. If money isn’t an issue then you might as well go for it, who knows, they might see something in your application they really like.</p>

<p>U of M’s been trying to increase its minority population by a lot. If you’re interested, I’d definitely say to apply.</p>

<p>I would say apply for no other reason than the fact you are an URM. With how much, UM cares about diversity, it raises your chances considerably.</p>
