Status change on Wolverine Access

<p>My cousin logged into Wolverine Access and noticed there was a slight change in status. When he clicks on Application Status, he saw the following:</p>

<p>Admit Term: FA 2010
Academic Career: Undergraduate LS&A
Academic Program: Lit, Science and Arts UG Degree</p>

<p>What does that mean? He is confused as am I. Aren't rejected students usually told that a letter is in the mail and accepted students sent an email telling them that they are accepted? He was not told that a decision was sent my mail and he did not receive an email.</p>

<p>My WA got that little change a while ago as well…
I was deferred in December and sitll havent got a decision…</p>

<p>I seriously think that little change means nothing at all. Everyone got that change, right?</p>

<p>that’s weird. because it looks like to me you’re admitted if u have that message.</p>

<p>^
I dont think the admission officers are so careless as to “leak” the decision this way…</p>

<p>And I dont even remember whether there is really a change… I just feel some differences, but I could be wrong…</p>

<p>Maybe everyone got that, or maybe the status has been like this since the beginning…who knows…</p>

<p>I always remember seeing extra headlines such as Application Date, etc… when clicking on application status. I also have the same information as your cousin, I don’t think it means anything at all because from what I can remember those headings have always been there. I think Admit term may be identifying with the term one wants to be admitted.</p>

<p>Mine says</p>

<p>Admit Term Academic Career Academic Program<br>
FA 2010 Undergraduate Engineering Engineering UG Degree</p>

<p>It’s been like this as long as i can remember. I still haven’t heard anything from them regarding admissions.</p>

<p>So, I guess that is same for everyone…</p>

<p>By the way, I have recently contacted the admission office, and they said that fianal decision would be released no later than mid-April…</p>

<p>I feel really bad for they seem to be releasing all the decisions together, which means it will most probably be a waitlist…Did anyone get accepted at the very last moment(mid April), last year?</p>

<p>And this time are they going to post the waitlist decision online? Or just by snail mail, and only acceptances are online again?</p>

<p>There was a thread last year, a handful of deferrels were accepeted and a large amount waitlisted. I don’t remember reading about rejections, but all the rejections that I can recall were only released in April.</p>
