We have heard of a few in NYC - but it is an unusually high waitlist count in a city where we normally have quite a few admits at every school.

My son has a friend who was deferred EA but was rejected today.
Rejected but I committed to UC Berkeley yesterday. That was my last pending decision and I am glad this chapter of the college process is over. What a ride with lots of highs and lows. Well, to be honest, one extreme high and lots of lows, but it only takes one.

Son was waitlisted OOS. Just a brutal day from what we are hearing. Very few acceptances, ton of waitlists. Still not sure what UMich is doing.
Anyway, been a fun ride with yâall, but weâll be moving on. Good luck to all of your kids wherever they end up!

UM has made some horrible decisions with sibs applying and they are equally qualified applicants yet the best part is when UM sends the donor cards for $1k, $5k, $10k or $15k more what a joke UM is such a hot mess. I wouldnât send them a penny after this yearâs torture of applicants even with one OOS at UM. No respect it will catch up to admissions.

Cal Poly SLO is better than UM
I have a CP Grad and my youngest graduating from UM next month. CP SLO is the best bang for your buck and the kids get JOBS! Good Luck

Yes, I hear nothing but great things about SLO! Son really wanted OOS experience and the big rah rah football team, but it seems to be a 3 way tie right now. Good luck to everyone on your decisions! What a wild ride this year!

D18 graduated Michigan about a year ago. D21 is a sophomore at SLO.
SLO IS the best bang for your buck in CA, but better than Michigan? Completely different, but both are fantastic college towns. Football rules A2. SLOâs football team is awful.

So Michigan has 45 majors in the top 10. A few years ago when my son was there for industrial engineering (2),his entrepreneurship minor was ranked 4 and Sustainability was ranked something like 7. This is what sets Michigan apart from most publics.
But go to whatâs affordable and has a great fit. Michigan is a really hard school and I canât say this enough.

Slo is a great school. Better? How? Best schools are affordable with a great fit. Not the name of the school. Beloit college is a fantastic school with great outcomes. Wonât hear much about it on these threads.
Instate Michigan is one of the best values out there. 45 undergraduate majors in the top ten. OOS itâs crazy expensive.
Congrats to your kids.
