Questions..I got deferred to UM.

Applying to College
1

<p>I recently heard back from the University of Michigan Ann Arbor and was deferred from the Early Action application. This school is one of my top choices (#2/3). So if anyone could please answer these question I would be very thankful:</p>

<p>Does anyone know if it would be good or bad if I wrote a letter to the office of admissions expressing my interest in the school and how I still really want to get in?
Also I left out some things on my application so could/should I add these to the letter I send them?
Approximately what percent of those deferred from Early Action get admitted in Regular Decision?</p>

<p>Thanks for the help.</p>

<p>It won’t hurt to let the office know that you’re still interested.</p>

<p>Do a lot of people get deferred? Or do I actually have a realistic chance of getting in?</p>

<p>The NY Times had a column last year titled with advice from among others the Dean of Admissions at Duke. You ought to read thru the article, which is at [You</a> Got Deferred. Now What?](<a href=“http://thechoice.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/09/defer/]You”>You Got Deferred. Now What? - The New York Times)</p>
