<p>It happened about a month ago. Early March I recieved a fat envelope from the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor with my acceptance letter inside of it. I was kind of surprised how they responded so quickly, but I guess it was because I applied in early January. A few weeks ago, I recieved my financial aid notice. Although I won’t say how much I recieved (>30), people who were familiar with financial aid awards were surprised by how much I was awarded (out of state.) </p>
<p>I didn’t post anything on CC because I wanted to wait for a reply from Cornell University and UC Berkeley, but as the days went by my interest in UMich grew. </p>
<li>They have a 1 week winter break which is complemented with a 4 month summer break; let’s talk swimming in the beach while other college students are studying for final exams!!! and still having enough time to complete a full internship! </li>
<li>They have study abroad opportunities for transfer students; Oxford, Cambridge, LSE!!!</li>
<li>The University of Michigan - Ann Arbor is ranked 13th for economics, 7th for mathematics, and 3rd for political science. </li>
</ol>
<p>Although I would probably love the weather in California and graduating from an Ivy league is still very enticing, I am now leaning towards studying at UMich. Yesterday night I paid my $200 enrollment deposit for the University of Michigan, and I am now in search of a nice warm winter jacket ;). </p>
<p>Did anyone else get accepted to UMICH? If so, then please give me your contact information. Let’s keep in touch!</p>
