Just received an email reminder to test Application Portal access to ensure ability to login ahead of the EA admission notifications which will be released by the end of the month.
Everyone else seeing this? Does this mean the decisions will not be postponed in light of the tragic news?
D23 received this email and we havenât heard that anything is postponed. Her admissions counselor also changed in her portal.
Weird I do not see this
Did not receive an email that EA was being released but was he was able to change his major from a five year chemistry bs/ms program to another major he felt was a better fit after talking to someone at the school. Just concerned this caused a hiccup in his outcome.
Deepest condolences to all of you in Admissions. All of this is so inconsequential compared to something that shocking and difficult.
If the decision release this year follows the last 2 yearâs patterns, decisions will be released on Friday, 1/17 between 4:00pm and 6:00pm Eastern. This is done on the portal, along with an email letting you know the decision has been made.
The ability to submit updated test scores has been disabled. Is everyone else seeing that?
Also, has anyone had their ability to change major disabled yet?
Based on threads from the last 2 years, those who had ability to change major disabled before the decision release were deferred/waitlisted. No telling if it will work the same way again this year but interested in knowing if anyone is seeing this.
Friday 1/20 or Friday 1/13
Typo: 1/27. The pattern has been to release on the last Friday of January.
D23 checked portal and she isnât able to submit an updated test scores. She can click on the link from the portal but it says the deadline has passed. Looks like she can still change major.
Thank you. When you receive your decision post here so next yearâs class will know if it still the same.
Same here⊠canât update scores but âmajor changeâ link still active.
As far as I know, everyone who could change their major was accepted. Check if it changes in the previous days
Has anyone applied to the double major program?
Change major was still active and my son was deferred so I do not think that it is accurate.
For at least the last 3 years, UM has issued EA decisions on the last Friday in January. My guess is that they will do the same this year. The EA pool is by far their biggest applicant pool. Have heard the number of applications is up another 10% this year (to nearly 55,000), so I think the chance of them releasing decisions a week or two earlier than normal is very very low.
Based on the ED decisions issued back in December, they seem to have addressed the change your major issue for this yearâs admission cycle. The ability to change your major is no longer an indicator of your future admission decision.
What Michael said!
Decisions will be released last week of January as hinted above by other posters. Sorry for the late replies.
We did eclipse well over 50K spots for 2200 spots so a stressful time but a rewarding one ahead for all!
50K just for EA !??? WOW ! how many do you expect RD ?
Their RD Deadline was 1/1. Last year TOTAL apps was just north of 40K. I suspect the 50K number thatâs being cited is all-in.
