<p>Greetings!</p>
<p>Let us use this thread to come together as transfer applicants to UMich & share in what will hopefully be a successful college application process. Let the discussions commence!</p>
<p>I wonder why this thread hasn’t gotten any responses yet? Well anyway, hello!</p>
<p>My app was submitted on the 23rd. I’ve got my UM ID but they don’t seem to have logged my college transcript or my high school transcript yet on WA. I’m thinking about giving them another week (maybe a few days?) until I try contacting them to make sure all my materials are in.</p>
<p>@Maziodyne hey extended the deadline for LSA transfers to February 15th, but I would call and try to figure it out as soon as possible. Mine got sent through snail-mail and they still appeared within a few days.</p>
<p>My application and all necessary materials were received by the 23rd, so it looks like I’ll find out between March 6th and March 20th… It’s nerve racking waiting that long, especially with an application for Broad at MSU due the 21st. I feel confident coming with nearly 60 credits from a 4 year university, lots of EC’s, and I think my essays were good. I did pretty well in high school as well. It certainly helps when the transfer acceptance rate is almost 50%!</p>
<p>I’m applying too.</p>
<p>There was another thread for this that got overlooked.</p>
<p>@doublejump Hey, best of luck to you in your application as well as your Broad application! I also happen to attend MSU at the Lyman Briggs College.</p>
<p>And thanks for the advice. I called admissions today and they said they hadn’t received my high school transcript, but it’d been mailed out on the 27th. I’m working on getting another one sent perhaps through ecredentials.</p>
<p>The number of credits do seem to be the biggest factor in transfer acceptance, so the odds certainly seem to be in your favor!</p>
<p>@doublejump, Where did you find out the decision range? Just a guess based on past threads?</p>
<p>@Maziodyne, Hey I’m also currently in Briggs, hopefully your things make it in time.</p>
<p>My quick stats: 4.0 College GPA, 58 Credits (13 Pending, 29 AP), 3.92 High School GPA, 25 ACT, Research Positon, Honors College. Good luck to everyone.</p>
<p>@Maziodyne Looking back through the past few years of transfer threads, it seemed like credits were more important than GPA or EC’s for Michigan, which should be good for us. Good luck getting everything sorted. I visited my high school to get them to send everything, which was easy since I’m living in my parents old house right now in the same town, but that might be difficult for you…</p>
<p>@MaxSDAX Someone asked the UMich Admissions Facebook page when they could expect a decision, and they replied saying 6-8 weeks after your necessary documents and application are received (meaning visible on Wolverine Access). However, looking back through previous transfer threads, some heard back as early as two weeks, although they typically submitted their applications as early as the start of December and just had to forward grades at the end of their semester. For those submitting closer to the deadline, it was between two weeks and 6 weeks, and a few who applied after the deadline heard back around 8 weeks. I’m guessing it’ll be anywhere between 4 and 8 weeks after they receive everything. Good luck to you, I don’t see any reason why any of the three of us who have posted wouldn’t get in.</p>
<p>Haha, thanks guys. I did call my high school counselor today, and she told me that the school actually posted it out on the 29th. It’s highly likely that it’s actually still in transit. I will continue to ogle WA for updates.</p>
<p>Yes, transfer admissions for UMich work on a modified form of rolling. At least from what I understand of it and what past transfer threads have suggested. It makes sense that some people would get their decisions faster than others before the deadline. After it, they do seem to work in batches.</p>
<p>@MaxSDax Two Briggsies, one thread! I feel like we’ve won the lottery. Good luck to you as well.</p>
<p>I don’t remember posting anything about my stats, so here they are for posterity:
College GPA: 3.54
Number of credits: 53 (24 from IB, 16 pending)
High school GPA: 3.53 (this 3.5 thing is something of a trend)
29 ACT</p>
<p>yay. I’ve been looking for one of these threads.</p>
<p>HS GPA: 4.0 fresh, 1.56 or something sophomore year
(GED)
College GPA: 4.0
Credits: 65 as of transfer (16 of which, including two semesters of precalculus of all things, cannot transfer 
)
ECs: PTK volunteer with multiple awards, volunteer at local food bank, part time tutoring job. </p>
<p>Essays were decent but weren’t outstanding either. Wide variety of courses for the core requirements completed but few major prereqs completed. Wish I had addressed this a little better, but we’ll see. I still have an okay-ish feeling about all of this.:)</p>
<p>Chance me? lol</p>
<p>University of Michigan School of Kinesiology (Sports Management)</p>
<p>ACT: 32
College GPA: 3.7
Credits: 58
ECs: Football (HS), Baseball (HS), Marching Band(HS), Student Govt.(HS), Internship at Alabama Athletics.
Above average essays
Average recommendation</p>
<p>Additional notes: Was deferred EA and rejected last year first week of April. 27 AP credits, most transfer. Attend the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa on a full-tuition academic scholarship (Honors College). Native of Michigan. </p>
<p>I got accepted this morning. I had poor high school stats, 4.0 in college, a ton of extra-curriculars and will have completed 60 credits by the time I decide to go to Michigan… if I decide to go to Michigan.</p>
<p>Good luck to all you transfer applicants and congratulations to those accepted.</p>
<p>I got accepted this morning too. 3.6 with 60 credits from MSU, will have 55 at UofM. Good luck to everyone.</p>
<p>@JimJamesofMMJ Congrats! Do you mind if I ask what your HS GPA was? I also did poorly in HS and was wondering how they factored this in. </p>
<p>Did you guys have your application status change from “Application is not complete” into “Application is complete” before you got accepted? I asked the admissions person at CoE and she said that they weren’t going to start marking applications as complete for awhile.</p>
<p>@JimJamesofMMJ, @doublejump,What colleges did you guys apply too?</p>
<p>@JimJamesofMMJ, @doublejump Congratulations, guys!</p>
<p>Congratulations!! May I ask when did you guys submit your application? I did it quite close to deadline.</p>
<p>@Jeser1 My HS GPA was around a 3.2. I took a year off in between HS and college, so I think that helped my case.</p>
<p>@Maziodyne I appreciate you.</p>
<p>@MaxSDax I haven’t been tracking my application online, as it doesn’t get updated in real time. I called them prior to February 1st and confirmed that my application was complete. I applied to 6 other colleges, and the University of Michigan was the lowest ranked, whatever that means. I’d be a very happy Wolverine if I decide to attend. </p>
<p>@Sammiyou93 Like you, I submitted my application pretty near the deadline.</p>
<p>Thanks for your reply. That’s very helpful. My application page still shows college transcript hasn’t been received. Maybe I need to call them to verify. </p>
<p>Users are already talking about acceptances only a few weeks after the application deadline. Hopefully, even though my application isn’t complete yet, I will eventually experience the same fate. Wish the best of luck to everyone!</p>
<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>Should the “Required Application Materials” in wolverine access be empty?</p>
<p>I had my transcripts sent out a couple weeks ago but there doesn’t seem to be any indication of it. This is my first time logging in and I’m a bit worried!</p>
