<p>Is Michigan sending out deferral letters on certain days? Has anyone gotten a deferral letter, since Monday when the most recent batch of deferrals was confirmed?</p>
<p>I think the “if your stats are good you will get in sooner” is BS. My GPA is a 97.74, and my SAT is 2200. I sent mine in 11/02/09. I still haven’t received a decision. My stats were very competitive. Maybe because im international…but the one about good stats sooner reply is not true at all</p>
<p>well the ER applications are given priority over ones sent in after the deadline</p>
<p>easyasabc, it’s a combination of mainly stats and when you send your app in, and some other things. </p>
<p>Did you mail your app in? If you mailed it, you’ll be fine since November 1st is a Sunday but if you submitted it online, you may not even be considered for ER, and you might have a long wait ahead of you.</p>
<p>Even if you are considered ER, your app is in the middle of the tidal wave of all the last second apps, so it would take a bit longer anyways, to even read your app. I think being international will also factor in.</p>
<p>shoot! no decisions tonight, UGH.</p>
<p>The timing thing is such bull. My friend got accepted last Friday with a 3.6 and a 26 ACT with virtually no ECs. He submitted his app and it was finalized exactly three weeks before mine. I have a 3.9 (at the time of submission) and a 30 ACT and still haven’t heard back. </p>
<p>I know that’s a fairly limited study, but it makes me believe that, while people who are “shoe-ins” are accepted quickly, the timing of your decision has much more to do with your submitted app date than your actual credentials. In other words, I think we’ll get the same amount of acceptances and deferrals from now until the 24th as we always have, and not just a wave of deferrals toward the end as so many predict.</p>
<p>i honestly think there’s still a good chance of getting decisions tonight/tomorrow, i don’t care what that person said in the chat. I mean, it’s not like that chat guy makes any decisions. This is f<em>king BS man, I really wanted to hear before friday 'cause that’s when I hear from my ED school, so thanks a lot umich for waiting so f</em>king long to tell me. Seriously.</p>
<p>@nyguy93 - penn? me too</p>
<p>yea i think you could be right because last time they said not until monday and they came out on that friday</p>
<p>yeah, i just wanna hear backkkkkkk :(</p>
<p>@ninjaboi</p>
<p>yeah, penn. i’m sure that, like me, you’ve been hoping to hear back from umich before penn, right? i mean, that’s supposed to be one of the perks of applying rolling. unfortunately, that’s not looking too likely for me.</p>
<p>@nyguy93
yeah, exactly. Same situation Oh well, I guess we just gotta deal xP</p>
<p>Lol - In terms of having to apply to other colleges just in case, my MIT interview setup deadline is tomorrow xDD</p>
<p>yea i also really wanted to hear from michigan b4 penn…guess that seems unlikely now…and last friday the chat rep said i would be hearing very soon…</p>
<p>hey, i got accepted last friday and i was just wondering when my actual letter was going to be in the mail. i saw that someone else asked the same thing and the response taht someone ELSE got their letter the following day. im just a little concerned it hasnt arrived yet. i live in texas if that has anything to do with it.</p>
<p>^i would wait a few days more. after that u might want to call them to ask about it.</p>
<p>If memory serves, which it may not because I am sleep deprived, I believe I said my letter came the next day. It is noteworthy that I live 20 minutes from Ann Arbor and the letter did not have far to travel.</p>
<p>Yeah I got my letter the day after I was accepted, but I live in Ann Arbor.</p>
<p>hmm alright so i guess my letter might just take a while longer to make its way down to texas. thanks for the replies, ill call them if i dont get it by monday.</p>
<p>why do you care about the letter? you’re in. not to be rude or anything, but i think you’re alright. and karrbinator, how did you get your chat rep to tell you that, mine are always so unhelpful!</p>
<p>what’s the link for the live chat again?</p>
