Why are most of the people on here from out of state? 
Do Michigan students not want to attend their flagship university or something.

There was an earlier post by a mom of a kid from last year’s class who said no one would get a rejection today, only acceptances and deferrals. Looks like she was right. Do all rejections then come out at the same time in March?
Unfortantely, you may be right on both points…

does anyone know when you find out after being deferred?
@runucleverboi There are plenty of applicants from Michigan, some of whom are on this thread. The acceptance rate is lower for OOS, so I imagine that’s why there are more anxious OOS applicants here.
@ChrystieATL For starters, he was deferred and not rejected. Secondly, I think you summed it up when you said “did not visit or show interest.” They hesitate to accept applicants who aren’t going to commit. They probably assume your son applied RD to an Ivy and is using Michigan as a backup (which I suspect is true).

@Pieruano You need to call or live chat with admissions and they’ll give you your UM ID.

LSA major
ACCEPTED! I am absolutely overjoyed. Here are my stats if anyone wants it.
In-State
School of Choice: LSA
Major: Political Science
SAT: 1380 (650 Reading, 730 math) - I know it’s not my strongest suit; my superscore is significantly better.
GPA: W: 4.01 UW: 3.87 (I have one B in Algebra II my sophomore year, but I currently have over 100% in AP Calculus)
APs: APUSH, AP GOV, AP Physics, AP Statistics, AP Calculus AB, AP Psychology, AP Environmental Science, AP English Literature & Composition
My Schedule this year: AP English Literature & Composition, AP Calculus AB, French 3 & 4, AP Psychology, AP Environmental Science, Chamber Singers (highest-level choir at school)
Extracurriculars:
Thespians (my troupe is affiliated with the International Thespian Society; I am the Historian. I’ve been involved since I transferred to my current HS halfway through freshman year; contributed 500+ hours)
NHS (got inducted my first year of eligibility, Executive Board member)
I work at Meijer (local grocery store-I work full-time during the summer and 15 hours during the school year)
Kids’ Food Basket (a local organization that provides take-home dinners to undernourished/underprivileged children. I volunteer there multiple times a week. We just established a farm where we grow our own produce to serve in the dinners. I’m also a member of their Youth Action Leadership Board.)
Student Council (got elected my senior year)
GSA- I founded the GSA at my high school when I transferred there. I had to attend a lot of meetings with the principal and school board in order for it to get approved, but it was worth it. I live in the most statistically conservative county in Michigan and our GSA has been able to do a LOT to encourage tolerance and acceptance of LGBTQ+ individuals in our community.
Music-been in choir since freshman year, top level choir, playing piano for 10+ years
Voices- I co-wrote a play entitled “Voices” with my friend the summer before my sophomore year. It’s a series of monologues about the LGBTQ+ individuals in our community, and it was selected for performance at both the Michigan Thespian Festival and the International Thespian Festival.
Photography- I guess this is my one “quirk” that UChicago could find special about me. I travel across North America photographing musicians in concert. I don’t have affiliations with any publications or websites, so I don’t have a press pass. My photos have been featured and used by some of the artists, including Alabama Shakes, Tegan and Sara, Post Malone, and Bishop Briggs. I wrote my Common App Essay about it.
Other opportunities: I attended a session of the Michigan House of Representatives with my local Representative, got to shadow her for a day
Demographic: white queer woman, legacy (mother and two uncles attended UMich) income bracket is $50,000-70,000.
