thank you
So we now know the application number was very close to the over 83,000 applications that applicants were told at the admitted student day, itās over 84,000, and not the 90,000 number we heard from one person here on CC.

I promised Iād parachute in to update our Dās college search. After an enjoyable evening of laughs and expected results, she has decided that she is going to enjoy watching her soon-to-be-enrolled college unceremoniously end the legendary career of Mike Kryzewski tomorrow night.

Let me see, which university could that beā¦
As my Penn State alum buddy says to me all the time, basketball is a nice diversion between football seasons. 
Congrats and Go Tar Heels!

Oh, Iām a double grad of UNC and this is the biggest game for me since I graduated from UNC in 1993 when we beat Michigan! But I married a Michigan grad and now love U of M, too. It looks like my son is going to pass on UNC which breaks my heart since it doesnāt look likely for Michigan to pan out. I guess weāll be adding another college to cheer for in our house. Congrats to your daughter - awesome school!

Congrats on committments!
My daughter committed last night and woke up to a notice that she was awarded a LSA 4-yr renewable scholarship. Not sure if its merit or need based, she applied for both.
So i guess some notices have been sent out. I was confused as the LSA 4yr Renewable scholarahip website said they only send out 200 of these? That doesnt seem right with the amount of freshman admits to LSA?
I feel thats a low number. I am not complaining at all. Just overthinking about this for a while.
Thoughts?

This is cryptic to me.
For the not-so-sports-inclined folksā¦ can you co firm my suspicion that this means your kid is going to Duke, not UM? Lol.
Congrats either way.
it means UNC!
200 is probably about right - michigan is notorious for giving very few merit scholarships unfortunately
Just wondering if anyone was admitted for summer termā¦my DS22 received an email 2 days ago asking if heād agree to switch his application to summer even though he applied for fall.

Haā¦sorry. She withdrew her UM application right before RD came out. I was very active on this board prior, and promised Iād come back to post where sheās headed.
Sheās going to UNC. The Duke coach is retiring, and UNC would relish nothing more than ending his career at their hands tomorrow night in the Final Four.
Duke/UNC basketball is apparently as rabid as UM/OSU.

This is helpful, thanks. I will not promise to retain It, but it makes sense for me now.
I remember your post and glad you updated! I have been an active reader and question-asker. This is my second time through this, but first succesful admission. Lol.
200 still seems low, for how many LSA freshman? 4400? My daughter is feeling the love. She feels there must have been a mistake for her to get it. Need to work on her confidence a little.

Thatās about 5% of LSA enrollment. That doesnāt appear to be unusual to me. Congrats!
