<p>Your chances are very good. I'd say Michigan is a safe match for you.</p>

<p>thanks Alexandre....im pretty new to this individual forum, and ive seen/heard good things about you already, i appreciate it</p>

<p>any more input?</p>

<p>Well, since your application was completed just a couple of days ago, I'd say that you probably won't get the decision until after the new year. I'd say you will most likely hear back from Michigan sometime in mid-late January, but it could be as late as mid February. Like I said, your stats (top 3%, 4.0 unweighed GPA, 1450 SAT, a bunch of AP classes etc...) makes Michigan a safe match. Chacnes are you will get into the Honors college. However, don't expect too much in terms of merit aid. </p>

<p>I hope this is detailed enough. Feel free to ask more detailed questions.</p>

<p>what does this have to do with USC?</p>

<p>it was a joke about the upcoming rose bowl....just to bring some attention to my chances thread</p>
