<p>Hey everyone, University of Michigan accepted my into their College of Engineering.
Anyways the acceptance letter says that I should send a final transcript in order to see if there is any academic decline.
Anyways Im in the IB diploma program and will be taking my official exams in May. Unfortunately I will only get my scores from the IBO in July. When they say send the transcript (after the 200$ deposit) should I send my IB scores or my transcript of grade throughout the year?</p>
<p>I’d say both.</p>
<p>I see. And what happens if my final semester’s grades are low but the actual IBO is pretty high?</p>
<p>Congrat to you. How low compared to what got you into the door? I think most school see some type of “senior slacking” but a drop of over 10 points per class would certainly raise a red flag.</p>
<p>Well in the IB every class is out of 7. I got in with about a 32/42 for all my subjects.
If I get say a 30 will that be ok?</p>
<p>Hey has Michigan ever reconsidered admission? I mean how often does this really happen?</p>
<p>Don’t sweat it. You should be fine with a 30/42.</p>
<p>Your predicted grade doesn’t include the bonus points? It should be out of 45 but I assume it varies amidst different schools. I’m also an IB diploma candidate but I haven’t heard from UM yet! Teachers often say that as long as we GET the diploma in the end, it shouldnt be a problem. It’s an unconditional offer unlike what they do in the UK!</p>
<p>God I really hope its unconditional. I kinda screwed up my mock exams (especially math) so I dont think that my final report card will be very good.
My predicted score is 36/45 including bonus points. Im predicted an A on my TOK and A on my Extended Essay.
So yeah, I really hope that UM will accept me on the basis of my final IB score.</p>
<p>Kinda surprised you got in so early with a 32/42. Was that your predicted IB score when you applied? I just heard of a student deferred with a 37/42 and 1900 SAT.</p>
<p>Oh no, my predicted was 33. My SAT was 1870 and my ACT 28.
I think they only accepted me either because of my essays or because I currently live in Kazakhstan…probably one of those experience things.
Plus my ECs werent that bad.</p>
<p>you are from kazakhstan? i know this guy named borat from kazakhstan and he’s really really cool…do you know him?</p>
<p>Really, really bad bearcats…;-)</p>
<p>Hah, Im not actually from Kazakhstan. I was born in Alabama, my parents just work here so I moved with them. But yeah Borat was pretty funny, people here hate me for loving it.</p>
<p>Holy *****! You are from Alabama and grew up iun Kazakhstan? That could get you into Harvard! I mean seriously, how many Alabama natives can claim to have grow up in Kazakhstan?</p>
<p>Ok, hey I got a question for you guys. Is it possible to submit a deposit to more than 1 uni at once? I mean can I submit my deposit to secure my slot in UMich and then once I get my other answers submit my deposit for them as well?</p>
<p>A girl in my class last semester was from Kazakhstan. She is a freshman and the first time she had ever even been to the US was when she came for orientation at UM in the summer.</p>
<p>So if we’re already accepted, is there anything else we should be doing? Are there separate scholarship apps?</p>
<p>Hey everyone, I have about 40 points without bonus points, 1940 in my SAT and I think I have good chances for UMich but didn’y get any answer yet… Is it true that decisions come on Fridays? Does it take longer for international students?</p>
<p>On the deposit, yes you can do that, if you don’t mind losing the $</p>
