Yea.
Yep
wait I can change it now too. I couldnât yesterday, though. Does that mean something
can u switch major?
i think we all can switch majors now. i donât think it means anything
it says i can switch it but i was asking to see if it meant anything. if some ppl could and others couldnât that would hint that maybe the people that could got accepted. but i think everyone can switch theirs so now idk.
Itâs looking like the ability to change majors might be a good sign youâre getting in, because I canât switch mine (it was a reach and I wasnât expecting an acceptance)
ok, it may be a sign
Oops never mind. I can change it now.

Does anyone know how much Miami considers demonstrated leadership/extracurriculars in their decision?
@collegelover99 you can see what they SAY they consider in the Common Data set at https://www.irsa.miami.edu/_assets/pdf/cds1920.pdf.
Extracurriculars are marked as very important, while talent/ability and personal characteristics are merely important. Make of that what you will. 
Someone brought up a good point that April 1st their regular decision date is a Thursday so who knowsâ:man_shrugging:

I applied ED1 and was deferred. The day of, maybe a few hours before decisions came out, my portal changed and instead of saying I applied ED it said Regular Decision. This happened to everyone else I know that was deferred from UM that day. Just wanted to put that info out there.

May I ask what were your stats? As in GPA, Rank, Test scores etc.
No, Iâm just going to wait. My daughter emailed the counselor last week and she told her the same generic response âEnd of the monthâ.
Sure.
3.98 GPA W
Did not submit test scores
9 Honors/APs
1 College Course through Syracuse University
Started two fundraisers
Worked two jobs
100+ Community Service Hours
3 Year Varsity Athlete (quit this year bc of COVID)
Babysitter
Multiple Clubs
Extremely well-written essays
I know my stats arenât as high as many others applying, but I had a very strong personal essay and supplement. I also dealt with mental health issues that caused my GPA to suffer which I indicated on my application.

Wow, those are good stats in my opinion.
So did they explain how the deferment will work?
I am so stressed lol, I have a 3.8 UW/4.8W first-generation, immigrant and Iâm an IB student but so many students from my school apply and theyâre all very good as well. UM is my top school so I hope it goes well. I just got deferred by Northeastern so I am very anxious.
