Didn’t get in. was anyone’s rejection letter different from this: “Regretfully, at this time we feel that the University of Michigan is not an appropriate match for your unique credentials and academic achievements” ?
I think that’s the standard rejection letter
Still waiting… getting rly anxious now

Lol our stats are basically identical and I got rejected too, so wild
just got accepted !!!
I know some of you are still waiting for decisions and I’m pulling for all of you - anyone who cares enough about Michigan to hang onto this thread this long deserves a chance. Go Blue!!
I’m curious on thoughts about the application questions “Why Michigan” v. “Why transfer” There is so much overlap - how do you distinguish these two questions? My son was accepted in January. His why Michigan focused on academics. His why transfer talked about the college experience in general and he made what I thought was a very compelling personal/family reason for wanting to be back in-state/closer to home. But absent that I think it is hard to answer that question without throwing your current institution shade. Any thoughts? Just curious
I honestly believe the reason there is so much overlap is because they simply used all of the freshman admittance prompts (such as Why Michigan) and pasted them over the transfer application instead of making a unique transfer application.
With that being said, I used the “Why Transfer” essay to outline my reasoning for choosing my current institution and why I now desire to pursue transferring and then the “Why Michigan” essay to outline the specific reasons why Michigan is the school I want to transfer to. While it is hard to not knock your current institution (why else would you be transferring?), like all things with college applications, much of it is simply a game of rephrasing. In other words, instead of talking about how the school has an objective shortcoming, maybe instead phrase it as though it’s not the right fit for you. Communicate what you wish without being disparaging.
