** Official Class of 2017 University of Michigan EA Decisions Thread **

<p>I feel like nobody knows what they are taking about. We all just “hear” things and it is freaking everybody out! Chill out guys, the decision is already made and there is nothing we can do about it.</p>

<p>Whatever should be, will be :)</p>

<p>i refuse to be calm, gosh darn it!</p>

<p>How much does being a URM (African-American) help out?</p>

<p>@Stave Affirmative action! Now, how much it helps I’m not really sure. I’m Hispanic. </p>

<p>For some laughs and giggles, you can go to the Columbia or Dartmouth Decision Threads and notice the differences between Whites/Asians and Hispanics/A.A.</p>

<p>Ahh! I hope they come out soon! Dying over here :)</p>

<p>So if you guys get in are you gonna get a dorm your first year?</p>

<p>I believe dorming is mandatory for freshmen just for freshman year</p>

<p>@kmizdancer, dorming isn’t mandatory. My sister is a current freshman and she commutes. Of course, it’s pretty difficult, so she’s looking into dorms. </p>

<p>@Mrpresident49, I’d most likely dorm, you?</p>

<p>How long before they release decisions do we think they’ll email us saying when they’re going to do it? a day before? two days? a week?</p>

<p>So I got a message back from the U-M Admissions crew. Needless to say, kind of useless.</p>

<p>[As</a> a matter of fact, no, this does not help. - Imgur](<a href=“http://imgur.com/EKAII]As”>As a matter of fact, no, this does not help. - Imgur)</p>

<p>@berzerker usually like 3 days ish before they release them
@sapharodon HAHAH wow yes so helpful. </p>

<p>sigh i guess we’ll just have to wait it out…</p>

<p>@CollegeParanoia I want to live in an apartment, dorms just don’t sound very appealing to me.</p>

<p>@Mrpresident49 I really think that you should try it! You meet a whole lot of new friends right from day one if you do. You will appreciate that apartment so much more if you have to live in the dorms first! People who have gone through college already all agree that you make most of your friends the first year in the dorm.</p>

<p>@hergie10 hmm I don’t know I’ll think about it, the thing is that I go to International Academy East, and about 20-30 people go there each year anyway so I’ll already know a good amount of people. It’s kinda nice to go to one of the best High Schools in the country :D</p>

<p>They really should be getting back to us real soon (I hope)</p>

<p>@Mrpres: Yupp! Dorm for me! Depending on how well it goes I may still have a roommate for 2nd Semester. If not, single!</p>

<p>I think they might send out the get ready emails tomorrow or Wednesday</p>

<p>I think that when decisions start rolling out we should all put our ACT, GPA, Hook, a little bit of extra info, and whether we got accepted, deferred, or denied. Sound good?</p>

<p>How big are recommendations from big time outside sources if they write you a letter?</p>

<p>You won’t find a single apartment on campus. They’ve all been taken already…seriously. This is why almost everyone lives in dorms 1st year. May be able to find something off campus, but parking near classes is very limited.</p>

<p>@hergie10 Sounds good</p>

<p>@steellord321 Already have one, I’m literally waiting to put the deposit down on it</p>
