UMich doesn't state rule against double enrollment

<p>Someone correct me if I'm wrong please. I was reading up on how some schools state that if you double enroll (that is pay two deposits to hold two spots at two different schools) they will rescind your admissions. </p>

<p>The reason I want to double enroll is because I really want to attend UMich, but the only way I can is if I win scholarships that i applied for. </p>

<p>So I have a full ride at a CUNY and SUNY and I was hoping to hold my spot in one of those schools in case I don't win the scholarships, which inform me in late June. </p>

<p>I keep looking for the small print in the UMich access page, but I can't find anything that states I'm not allowed to double enroll.</p>

<p>Please tell me if this is allowed!!!!</p>

<p>You’re not supposed to, as I understand it, BUT it is not the case that U-M rescinds your admissions offer if you do it.</p>

<p>Is your other college OK with it? If they are, then I would say go for it. What do you have to lose? By not accepting their offer, you have a 100% chance of not going, if you do accept their offer, you have a 50% of having your admission taken away and not going.</p>

<p>He’d be worried that if he does he immeadiately closes Michigan as an option at all…</p>

<p>How would Michigan find out about it? Seems like if you didn’t say anything they wouldn’t know until you just didn’t show up.</p>

<p>^^Your high school will likely inform the colleges about a dual enrollment (I know my school did when a girl tried that last year). One of her colleges took away her offer of admissions, the other let her enroll.</p>

<p>How does the high school know?</p>

<p>I do not know how they knew. Maybe colleges call the schools to verify information or something. I know that the school was able to put together a huge list of where everyone was going, and some of my friends said they never told the high school where they decided to go to school.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>WHOA! :eek: That is messed up! My high school has the friendliest faculty. I would never expect them to ruin a student like that. I’m sure if I ask the counselors they would definitely not inform any of the schools. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>My other college is ok with it. I’m really scared of having my admission rescinded, but you are right! I pretty much can’t go unless I know about these scholarships, so I’m better off taking two acceptances than flat out rejecting this one.</p>

<p>I heard once that some schools contact each other, but I doubt most CUNY’s and SUNY’s contact a school like Michigan.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>This kind of relaxes me. Can you explain how you know this? Are there different penalties or a procedure I must endure if they find out?</p>

<p>“I heard once that some schools contact each other, but I doubt most CUNY’s and SUNY’s contact a school like Michigan.”</p>

<p>I think you have to worry more about the FAFSA people or your high school contacting the schools and telling them about the double enrollment than the actual colleges themselves. </p>

<p>Like I said though, one choice eliminates your chances alltogether. So what if your admissions is rescinded? Your admission might as well be rescinded if you don’t accept their offer.</p>

<p>um…i have a quick question…i applied to LSA and also preferred admit Ross…i don’t have a chance at Ross but def hoping for LSA…I’m a little worried though because i accidentally sent my SAT II scores to UM…and even though i know they’re not considered, they WILL see them if they’re there right?? and this will totally break my application because my SAT IIs are pathetic… Bio- 570…Math-600
my SAT I is horribly low also- 2030( 690 CR, 710 writing, 630 Math) so i’m really worried that the extra scores will count against me.</p>

<p>DR, your plan seems a little risky to me. ES is correct that the schools report back to the counseling office. In addition, the counseling office sends your final marks to the school to which you’ve matriculated. Is there any way you can have a conversation with admissions about your desire to wait for the scholarship results and get their blessing? Who knows, maybe it could trigger a conversation with fin aid about your terrible package as well!</p>

<p>DRMAN, call the admissions office at Michigan and tell them you need an extension on your enrollment deposit deadline due to financial concerns. They’d rather have you do this than double-deposit.</p>
