<p>Thanks so much for your help, everyone! I personally prefer UMich. XD
Also, I think Berkeley is much harder to get into than UMich?
So I guess it all comes down to what life gives me haha.</p>
<p>Seriously helped a ton Miw140. I now have a much clearer choice!</p>
<p>No problem Ivory! BTW, what are your stats?</p>
<p>hey guys! has anybody got their EA replies for michigan yet?</p>
<p>@mercedes nahhh</p>
<p>Oh Mercedes. You have no idea.</p>
<p>This is tons of posts behind but calling doge a “lovely cat” is just not acceptable.</p>

<p>So, are decisions out yet? This 104-page thread is just too hard for me to sift through…</p>
<p>Heard they did not release decisions on 13th or something.</p>
<p>If not out, perhaps they may be having some technical issues with CommonApp</p>
<p>Anyways good luck all!</p>
<p>There is no point in reading these threads and feeling stressed out. All you have to do is go about your day and wait until you receive an email from admissions. There are only 7 days and you are guaranteed a decision in that time frame so why stress? It’s out of our hands.</p>
<p>^uh…if you’re replying to me, I’m not stressed. I honestly don’t give a damn about college. Whether I get into MIT, UMich, Stanford etc…blablabla I don’t care. I have another purpose in life than college.</p>
<p>Just a note to Ivory about the what-if…I’m guessing your folks are from Cal? I think in terms of international reputation, they would find UMich and Ross in particular equally prestigious with cal among the international finance community. To think otherwise is localized thinking 
So if you end up with the choice and just need your folks on board, come back to this discussion board and post the comparison question. The moderator, Alexandre, has in his possession both a whack of stats and direct international experience He’ll give you fodder for discussion with your folks!</p>
<p>At any rate, good luck to all and stay calm. Many of you won’t ultimately know until this spring if you’re actually accepted because so many who are deferred actually end up accepted when the crush of EA clears. So while this might be just a stage in a longer waiting game, which is hard, stay positive :)</p>
<p>I wonder what percent of those who were accepted EA last year actually ended up attending UM. If there really are more qualified applicants using UM as a safety, then maybe they could accept a higher number early on. Probably wishful thinking.</p>
<p>Might be too late but</p>
<p>@ivory</p>
<p>UC Berkley is better to attend for grad school. More and more of my undergrad friends have had to take a 5th year undergrad to finish up their credit requirements (which means another year of tuition and living costs). And it’s not just them, many others have been falling into this trap. U of Michigan > UC Berkley for Undergrad, U of Michigan = UC Berkley for grad. Hope this helps!</p>
<p>When is it coming out!?</p>
<p>Friday. If not then its gonna be the 24th</p>
<p>Any day really. It’s all a guessing game.</p>
<p>@Skyrior I was speaking generally. Not you specifically.</p>
<p>People from north Farmington michigan got their acceptances. I heard this from my friend. I’m not sure if this is 100 percent accurate but I just wanted to let you guys know.</p>
<p>^I would be highly skeptical of that.</p>
