<p>I agree with eziamm. Before I applied, the tour I went on was great, it definitely didn’t discourage me from applying. Furthermore, Campus Day was awesome - well-organized, really informative, engaging, and reassured me that I made the right choice!</p>
<p>Exactly same feeling as you posted. We never received any communications either except the Defer “decision”. Admission Office is a perfect window of a university. I really doubt UMichigan would treat students better after they are enrolled when it recklessly sent a Deferred messsage without even reading an application at all. We were rejected by some other universities but did not complain with what they did.</p>
<p>i cant say i would be excited even if i were accepted to michigan. </p>
<p>i’m not even one of the people who applied EA, i applied in january towards the end of the regular decision deadline, and i have heard from every other school i have applied to except for michigan. between the cold weather, disorganization/terrible admissions, and Umich notoriously known as having ugly girls, the least attractive of any big ten school(no offense im just being honest), the university really doesnt appeal to me, and im not really sure why i applied here</p>
<p>2fast4you, you really need to get over yourself</p>
<p>1.) If your a ■■■■■ and can’t take a little cold weather, than yeah, don’t come here.
2.) Just because you haven’t heard back doesn’t mean its terrible admissions. Plenty of people have heard back, you just don’t stick out. You are not special, I’m sorry.
3.) Really? You’ve been to every Big Ten school and know the girls are less attractive here? Hmm, interesting, you really get around. And why would you even think that would matter, are the girls gonna be all over you? Haha</p>
<p>Really, if that’s how you feel, you don’t deserve to go here.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You guys are hilarious, haha. You aren’t a student here but you already know how the university treats its students. You apparently also know they didn’t touch your app at all, didn’t even read it. You must have some inside info.</p>
<p>Really, after any long day here I can just read the posts of students/parents *****ing about “how horrible umich is” because they/their kid didn’t get in yet. Haha</p>
<p>
Just curious. How did you know that?</p>
<p>1) LOL, i can handle cold weather just fine. most of the time people think im crazy for going outside with a t-shirt when its ten degrees outside. the point is, its not enjoyable to be in a place that has a cold climate. i would much rather attend vanderbilt or emory, not only because they are ranked better than michigan, but because the weather is 10x better. climate wise, any school> michigan</p>
<p>2) yes, michigan admissions has shown that they are incompetent. if you think it’s normal to not hear from a school in several months, then you are very strange. there should be no reason that students have to hear in mid april and feel rushed to make a decision in two weeks before the may 1st deadline. michigan is the only school notifying students this late.</p>
<p>3) it is a widely known fact that michigan has some of the most unattractive girls on any college campus. i have heard this so many times, it obviously has some truth to it. it seems like you go/have gone there, so dont deny this, because you know its true. i understand you want to defend your university, but honestly i would be pretty mad if my school was filled with a wide abundance of below average looking females.
and yes, any school i will go to, the girls will be all over me. try being 9% bodyfat year-round, with perfect genetics and model looks. everywhere i go i get attention from females, but thats besides the point. the university im going to needs to have atleast some decent looking females that are close to my level- when i have kids i don’t want to have poor genetics in their bloodlines</p>
<p>2fast4you. Wow. You sound like a jerk. Please spread your perfect genetics somewhere else. The entire state of Michigan salutes your decision to attend school elsewhere. </p>
<p>Sheesh.</p>
<p>2fast4u, go shove that 9% bodyfat up your sweet little as s and get the fuc k out of here. Jerkoff.</p>
<p>Wow, t-shirt in 10 degree weather! You are badass! And 9% body fat… OMG!</p>
<p>Some people told you something, that is largely subjective, and you believe it hands down. God, you are stupid… no wonder you didn’t get in…</p>
<p>Am I the only one that thinks 2fast4you is a ■■■■■?</p>
<p>@MLDWoody
I’m just going to throw this out there as blunt as I can because I honestly have an issue with the way you talk to people on this forum. While I don’t attend UMich as of now and don’t have many posts here, I have been an active reader on these forums and know a lot of what has been going down these past 6 months as far as admissions, blah blah and yadda yadda.</p>
<p>Michigan is slow, plain and simple, but it is also understandable from the tons of applications they got. I also know that a lot of people, including myself to some extent, are slightly displeased with this as deadlines for deposits for colleges are due soon. However, I personally don’t believe that should give you the high and mighty right to tell people to quit being whiney babies and what have you just because they are concerned about their future at Michigan. I also don’t see how you can be so seemingly heartless towards those who will potentially wait 6 or more months for their decision, just to get rejected or wait-listed then rejected (even worse)…</p>
<p>It is very clear that Michigan has stated “Mid-April” on their site and that people should have been ready to wait that long regardless, but there is definitely a better way to give people a reality check that doesn’t include calling people pussies and *****ers. This site is supposed to be a supportive environment to help future students through the college process, not bring them down through derogatory remarks.</p>
<p>The way you address potential future students at UMich is totally inappropriate to say the least and isn’t worthy of Michigan on any sort of level, whether you attend Michigan or not. And you talk about people not deserving to go to Michigan? Not to mention that you find it so hilarious and amusing after a long day of studies to just sit here, read, and make fun of people’s concerns on here. You make me sick and upset 
</p>
<p>I’m not saying you haven’t provided any useful and realistic advice for people, because you have. You just need to tone it down. (■■■■■■ aside of course)</p>
<p>Take it down a notch people! We are all entitled to our opinions here. Some will love Michigan while others will hate it for whatever reason. </p>
<p>To those who have had a negative experience with Michigan’s admissions office/process, you are not alone. Many applicants to many universities feel let down by the process. It is mostly due to poor managing of expectations on the part of the applicant, but also sometimes due to the lack of organization in the admissions office. Many students who apply to Michigan early assume that the University will admit them and quickly because in the past, students with their credentetials were typically accepted within few weeks if they applied in the early period. Those days are obviously over for the majority of people who apply early, leaving many applicants supremely disapointed. Michigan was the one good university on their list that they depended on for an early acceptance, so I can imagine the major disapointment when they are not accepted. On the other hand, with the surge in applicants, Michigan has not done enough to handle the volume. Michigan’s applicant pool has almost double in 6 years, yet the admissions office has done little to manage the numbers better.</p>
<p>Well…I’m okay with “2fast4you” not attending.</p>
<p>“And I don’t got to be false or sugar coat it at all”</p>
<p>I am not going to change what I want to say to make people like 2fast4you feel better. The fact of the matter is a lot of people come on here and complain about the admissions process, mostly because they haven’t gotten in. Maybe they are IS and they have seen people around them get in and don’t realize it is harder now, IDK, but they don’t need to turn their attacks to the university and come up with BS reasons for why they don’t want to go.</p>
<p>Admissions aren’t perfect, anywhere, but that doesn’t mean kids on here need to start attacking the university.</p>
<p>It is not the fact that people aren’t getting in or having a bad experience that I get entertainment out of, its the way they react. Its reading threads with titles like these and posts that attack umich because they didn’t get in that I find funny.</p>
<p>I currently go to Michigan and I agree that the way they handle admissions sucks. Plain and simple.</p>
<p>I can agree with that @MLDWoody. A lot of folks who just want to sit here and attack the college right off the bat probably wouldn’t like it at Michigan anyways. They may even use it as an excuse further down the road to just say the college sucks in general, which it definitely does not (acceptance or no acceptance). I just think that some people may come off the wrong way about their feelings on this forum, especially after a pretty excruciating and almost tormenting wait on Michigan’s part. The OP was a little over the top, I’ll agree, as well as a few of the other posters everyone has encountered on here. I just think that everyone here should be approached equally and then figured out through multiple reply’s before we immediately say, “stop *****ing”.</p>
<p>IDK maybe I’m just too nice. I guess that is just one of the many weaknesses of class presidency. :/</p>
<p>My one fault…</p>
<p>I just care too much</p>
<p>I can see where you are coming from with that for sure. I am also also realistic and know that nothing I say will necessarily influence what you say or think about people here, and I respect that as that gives a person their personality and individuality. I can tell you I definitely take everything people say about me on an online forum with a grain of salt, so I don’t see why you wouldn’t 
I guess I can say I tried at the very least.</p>
<p>Haha what? I was just kiddin around G</p>
<p>You seem like a nice guy, and I don’t think I’ve offended you.</p>
<p>And yes, almost everything you say will not influence me at all. I am my own person! I am a maverick! haha</p>
<p>Don’t take anything said in an online forum seriously, it’s all BS. Unless Alexandre says it, then you best listen to what he has to say.</p>
