<p>I just checked my app status for the first time and under academic plan it says residential college. </p>
<p>I only checked that I was interested in applying to residential college, not that I was definitely doing it. </p>
<p>Does this automatically put me in RC if accepted? Because I need to do some research before I committ to that</p>
<p>Yes, if you are admitted to LSA you will also be admitted to the residential college. You can leave it be for now and always request to withdraw from the RC later if you don't want to be in it.</p>

<p>ADMISSION PROCESS:
Putting the Puzzle Pieces Together
Simply indicate the Residential College under the U-M school or college selection or click the RC box on the online application.
If you indicated the RC on your application, you will be contacted in writing by RC admissions staff within 3 weeks after you are officially admitted by the U-M.
Please read the RC admission letter, review the brochure & website to make certain you are still interested and reply promptly. Note: you can either confirm or deny your interest in the RC at this time.
In the early spring, students are confirmed for the RC based on when they replied and when they matriculated (payment of the U-M enrollment deposit).
Once you are confirmed by the RC you will be contacted by the U-M Housing Office (HIO) and U-M Orientation (ONSP). You must complete HIO and ONSP online application forms in a timely manner and make the appropriate selections to ensure the correct housing and orientation placement that coordinates with the Residential College program.
Finally, during the summer, you will attend an RC orientation, receive advising and register for your classes</p>
