<p>Nominee for the Town's 10 oustanding youth award</p>

<hr>

<p>I will try and am likely to get over 2200 and maybe 2300 on next SAT. Prob RD, International student studying in the states (which might affect my chances)</p>

<p>Am I safe?</p>

2

<p>Umich does have EA, and if you do apply early I think you’ll get in.</p>

3

<p>Thanks, so EA? You think Im safe with the SAT as of now? How about RD, with a better SAT score? Ill ED probably to Tufts</p>

4

<p>you can ED tufts and still EA umich
your SAT is OK, but if you want just send your ACT. I would say for sure apply EA because even if they thought your scores were too low and deferred you then you could send your new scores and get in.</p>

5

<p>Would you recommend me sending both SAT, SATII, and ACT??</p>

<p>To elaborate: EA at Mich is non-binding and it is very important to apply early to qualify for scholarship == so apply asap, the essay prompts are online.
What do you intend to study? Are you applying to LSA, or looking at the creative/arts/music etc. If the latter, there are different requirements as well.</p>

7

<p>where do u find the requirements? I am thinking sciences and maybe doing buisness as sophmore</p>

8

<p>Essentially the early response is early action.</p>

If you are talking about arts/music the site is here:

<p>And for LSA there isn’t really any requirements.</p>
