Accepted to LSA today, email received at 3:24 pm. It was the first weekday I didn’t refresh my portal (of course!) so I’m sorry I can’t be more specific.
- I am from an in-state CC, with 57 credits, not including my current courses.
- Physics major (though that doesn’t matter for LSA I don’t think.)
- 1st gen college student, white female
- 3.93 GPA (weighed down by one B from 2011), no idea what my HS GPA was… probably 3.95 but I believe they gave me F’s for the semester that I left (my junior year). 99th percentile GED scores.
- Non-traditional (gap in education ~7 yrs)
- 2 LOR - 1 (which I saw, from a prof I had for two for courses closely related to my major) was great, the other was presumably great from an English prof.
- Essays were creative and reflective… I love writing so I cannot score them. Certainly not my best. I barely answered the “reasons for transferring” prompt haha. I pretty much poured my heart out.
- No traditional ECs, though I had plenty in HS. I’d say my “spike” of interests and hobbies suits and complements my major well. I also work part-time.
A mini tangent in case there is anyone out there stalking these forums as I did several years ago:
I left high school (dropped out) due to illness and got my GED, despite being a great student prior. I also ended up dropping out of my first college for similar reasons. I beat myself up for years and felt like a total failure. It took me a while to get over it, “bite the bullet,” and go to community college. Community college has actually been great, and I think preferable to giant lecture halls for “weeder” courses graded on a curve. (Not to mention the cost difference for online classes during the pandemic…) Long story short: never ever ever give up! (Or surrender 
)

So happy to hear this story. Mine is very, very similar to yours. I have yet to receive a decision, but regardless, I am especially happy for you and your persistence. Congratulations and I bet you will do phenomenally at Michigan.

Thank you so much, that is so very kind 
. I hope you hear back soon, and best of luck to you!
Kines is just now asking for my current course enrollment. I turned in my app 2 months ago:(
wait that’s probably a good thing that they are asking, means they are considering you for admission right??
I don’t think so. Don’t they ask all transfer applicants for their current courses since they don’t show up on your transcript yet?
Dang, acceptances has really slowed down.
I emailed the admissions office before, like a long time ago, and they told me they would ask to see it if you are admissible
