Yes, DS25 was deferred in EA two years ago and was devastated. He didn’t want to complete the LOCI form, but we made him. The LOCI form stated that he would attend UM if admitted. One month later he was admitted. Just came back from AA, visiting with my younger DS who is applying next year. DS25 is very happy in AA. So it does work out some times: don’t give up, don’t ever give up!
We also saw Purdue beat UM men’s basketball last night. Now that we are not happy about. . . .

How does one convince them? It seems they only want recent grades… what is the form letter, what else is pertinent to send?
Our applicant doesn’t want to click yet, on the link since it says you can only submit once.
What is your read on this? Are they applying to a smaller school like my child?
Postponed OOS. 1520 SAT, 4.0UW. LOTS of leadership EC’s and AP’s.
S23 postponed; OOS, 4.0, test optional.
Is the RD thread up and running? Or, does eventually change to encompass postponed applicants?

Double Legacy
Our school typically sees around 30 get admitted each year. In this EA round we counted 11 that were admitted, most deferred, and at least one outright rejected. A friend who was accepted COE was told he will know in 10 days if he gets into CS.
Last year, several who were deferred were accepted within a week after EA announcements came out.
I hope this info helps someone! Congrats to all that got in and keep the faith for those of you deferred!
GO BLUE!
