My fellow deferred

<p>How do you guys feel right about now? I mean if what people are saying is true, we have a low chance at getting in and we will be waitlisted, further dragging things out. Do you feel like this has been a terrible admissions process? do you feel this has been a slow painful process that eventually lead to death(figuratively)? The rest of you might not feel this way but my life is practically dedicated to this university, so it hits me especially hard. I was hoping to move on with my life on December 24th admit or deny. But no. Does UofM feel entitled to make us think we have a shot of getting in just because we applied early and they don't wanna straight up reject us because it would be too mean? well I think that as a hunk of bull$hit. Give me admittance or give me denial.</p>

<p>I understand your situation as Im also a ER application who was deferred. I do find the admission process of mid-April distracting to the college process after finding out in recent months that most universities give students decisions by April 1st. It would be nice to know on whether we have an acceptance or denial from UMich, I suspect the far majority who have not heard back yet are either denied or waitlisted.</p>

<p>I wonder how many people have been accepted up to this point. That would be really interesting</p>

<p>I am also becoming increasingly discouraged with every day that passes. Although I have been accepted at many other great schools, I WANT TO GO TO MICHIGAN!!! My mom called the admission office on Monday and they told her that there are still many spaces available and that they were still processing some of the regular decision application and that I would probably not hear anything this week.</p>

<p>I am trying to keep an open mind and visiting Penn State, BU, Maryland, Washington and UCSB in the few next weeks, but until I have resolution on where I stand with Michigan will have a hard time choosing another school.</p>

<p>I wish admission could give us some statistics on the numbers of people in our situation and confirm whether there really is a “good” deferral letter (which I want to hope I received).</p>

<p>I remain true blue and optimistic…but I do not know for how much longer!</p>

<p>If you have to choose between those schools ^^ go to UCSB. Just got back a week ago from there, and it’s unreal.</p>

<p>Last year’s thread shows that some kids received acceptances periodically between April 8-16 and then there was one day where waitlists were unleashed upon everyone who was left.</p>

<p>^do you know if they were deferred though?</p>

<p>I totally understand how everyone is feeling. I’m from California and I’m anxiously awaiting a decision from Michigan. One way or the other I’d like to move on with my life haha. It’s good to know that everyone else is in the same boat and I’m not the only one checking my email/Wolverine Access every couple of minutes!</p>

<p>i’m defered but i dont think i will go even if i get in. still considering it though</p>
