IMO, getting an answer before Christmas is fantastic. If deferred, then you’re automatically entered into RD anyway, which typically has decision releases on 2/1, 3/1 and 4/1. You wouldn’t get your regular RD app answer until 2/1 at the earliest anyway depending on when your RD app was submitted.

That was actually one thing we didn’t like about the UofM decision process. My son applied by Nov. 1 and didn’t get a final decision until April and even that wasn’t really final.
