<p>hey winston c, did your WA show you when did they receive your TOEFL? because i am foreign student too, but i am a permanent resident, so dont know if i still need to take the TOEFL.</p>
<p>i submitted my toefl, and it says "received by 11/11" on my WA. wouldnt it be safer if u have taken it. maybe u wouldnt have to wait like us. did "toefl" appear on ur "required materials" like it did on mine?</p>
<p>no, i only had 4 things-tests, transcript, teacher rec letter, and counselor rec letter. i hears someone said if i've been to school in the U.S for like 3-4 years, then i am exempted from taking TOEFL.</p>
<p>well..thats true, guess u didnt havet to take it anyways. any news so far??</p>
<p>no, nothing. i guess i should get ready to receive my deferral/rejection letter on friday</p>
<p>me 2. where do u live outside US??</p>
<p>shenzhen, china.</p>
<p>and u can tell..me=SH, china..glad theres someone waiting like me..lol..sry</p>
<p>I am waiting tooooooooooo</p>
<p>since the post office will be off tmr, so we'll prob get our letters on friday</p>

If you don't have anything on WA, I'm pretty sure it means your deferred
I'm not surprised that I was though, after reading around these boards, I figured out that I definitely was not borderline like I thought; I'm below average. I'm gonna withdraw my application on Friday. Good luck to you all!! Merry Christmas!

<p>why would you withdraw your app just because you got deferred... overreacting much? if you do, that would quite possibly be the biggest waste of 40 bucks that i can think of. everyone i know who got deferred including myself is at least going to try and you should too. don't assume you don't have a chance, because you do. do the best you can during whatever is left of your semester, and good luck in april.</p>
<p>they dont celebrate xmas in china, do they? its not an official holiday for them. thats wat my teacher told me, they still have to go to school.</p>
<p>this is the worst xmas ever..not knowing any results besides rejection from stern.</p>
<p>I'm a foreign student too.pr though
I got an email from michigan saying that they can't make a decision until all the required material are recieved. so i guess that's why some foreign kid haven't got a decision yet.</p>
<p>i didnt receive that email and all my required materials were received by UM office as indicated on WA. so i guess thats not my case. btw, wat r u missing?</p>
<p>they put decisions up last night!!! i got in!!!</p>
<p>unfortunately, some of us didnt get it.</p>
<p>wat r ur stats??</p>
<p>sorry you didnt hear. i just posted my stats on the decision page.</p>
<p>Nothing on my WA, just a letter.</p>
