I have no clue but I would assume they roll out decisions in waves since they are still deciding if people get in or not.
Son Accepted Class of 2023 (on Friday night)
LSA
OOS
1540 SAT
3.77 GPA UW (4.4 GPA W)
National Merit Semi-finalist
LOCI sent (and response received)
I combed through last year forum and the next wave of decisions wasn’t released until early March, except a few students got accepted at random times.
That is correct. The first Friday in March was the next release date for the Class of 2022, but you really never know for sure. Keep checking those portals every Friday. UMich can always change their MO.
Decisions could be released any Friday. Though last year there wasn’t another wave until early March, two years ago there were waves in the middle of February. UMich hasn’t followed a perfect pattern year by year.
For the Class 2020, decisions were released on Fridays 2/5 and 3/4. Nothing in between, exactly like the Class of 2022.
For the Class of 2021, as I noted earlier, UMich didn’t release any decisons on Friday 2/3, but instead released the following week. However, that was the only biggish release for the month of February. The pattern is essentially the same. One large release in early February and one large release in early March.
UMich LSA/CoE may be following the same schedule as Ross:
I wouldn’t consider the Feb 1 release very big. There were only a handful of posts compared to most universities that blow up on an announcement day. Who knows when the next release will be but hopefully each school will at least release who they have accepted on a rolling basis each week. I guess the alternative would be for them to wait until April to let anyone know.
I think most denials will be towards the end in late March/April.
I went ahead and counted. RD/EA Deferred acceptances = 44. Seems like more than a handful when you consider CC is just a small sample and it’s not EA, where 50% +/- were accepted on one day. As I said, “biggish.”
In-state = 4
CoE = 7
Kinesiology = 0
Nursing = 0
The balance were LSA or unidentifed. Ross has a separate thread. Seems as if In-state is not represented well here on CC, since 55% of the class of 2022 were in-state students.
Hopefully, UMich will release acceptances each week on a rolling basis, they just haven’t done it, at least in recent years.
Forgot one footnote, we don’t know what impact the Polar Vortex and the closure of the admissions office for two days had on the Friday 2/1 release. Maybe UMich will “squeak out” a mid-month release to compensate. Hoping!
@sushiritto – I just have to tell you I ate at Sushirto in SF today and unfortunately it is not as good as it used to be!!
I also didn’t get an automated response to my letter of cont. interest and I didn’t ask any questions that would lead to not using an automatic response
So, I also calculated the average SAT, ACT and GPA of the first “wave” of RD/EA deferred acceptances for your “viewing pleasure,” based upon what was reported for those 44 acceptances on this thread only for Friday 2/1:
GPA 3.93
SAT 1,520
ACT 34
SAT range: 1,390-1,570
ACT range: 31-36
UW (only) GPA range: 3.77-4.0
If you’re OOS, then scores were on the high side, in-state on the lower side of the range. As an example, one of the ACT 31’s was in-state (one OOS) as was the 1,390; however, the 3.77 GPA was reported by a student from OOS. Not everyone posted 100% of their stats and some students posted nothing at all. It’s not perfect, but just to give everyone a rough idea.
@ImASoccerPlayer I was using the name in the generic sense, like Kleenex. :))
Is it bad I just sent in my LOCI letter?? I held back at first because of the “the most successful candidates send us only what we require”, but then I thought it wouldn’t hurt. Also-- I never got an automated response back… is that worrying?
@jelbel123 I didn’t get one for mine either. I emailed my regional officer to confirm and she said they don’t typically send confirmation. However, I sent mine in by mail and I think most people send their LOCI through email.
If you look at the EA page, there were over a hundred posts of deferred and acceptances in the first few hours after they released, and I gave up after only tallying a small percentage. No rejections. The pages go on and on. This past wave (2/1) was very small in comparison. 44 is nothing if you look back, or compare it to other schools on a release day. So, have faith, there are many more acceptances to come.
We’re arguing about size. :))
A. Comparing to other schools is irrelevant, because every school is different.
B. “a hundred posts of deferred and acceptances” is also irrelevant, because UMich accepted approximately 8,000 of their 15,000 acceptances on that ONE day (12/19/18). The 2/1 release wasn’t 8,000 or 50% of the entire population of acceptances for a class. It was some smaller %.
On this we can agree on. “How many?” is the question. If LSA/CoE is following the Ross schedule, then there are three “biggish” releases remaining: March 1, March 29 and April 19.
You completely missed the point. I was just saying that with such a small number of decisions posted from the 2/1 release, the data suggests there are many more to come. No arguments, just be positive.
@Bizdock no I’m in state
