University of Michigan Transfer Thread # 2

<p>Alright, lets restart this thing. Im sure there are tons of people applying to Michigan.</p>

<p>When is a good time to apply? I know its rolling admissions, but for most schools the 1st semester grades arnt even out yet.</p>

<p>In your sophomore year with a decent GPA (at least 3.5)
That's before march I think</p>

<p>is it too late if I want to apply for Fall 2008? I know for transfers the app is due on Feb 1, but I was wondering when do people usually apply?</p>

<p>I think it is too late if you want to apply for Fall 2008 because it is rolling admissions, and I am pretty sure a lot of people applied already. It would be just waste of money even to send the application.</p>

<p>I was accepted for the Winter 07 term as a freshman... I spent 4ish months at Boston University. I loved my friends and the crew team but hated everything else. I found every stereotype and rumor about the school (snobby rich kids, constant low quality partying, grade deflation, no school spirit, low class attendence/participation) to be 100% true. Plus, with the cost being so high, why not go for a higher ranked academic school? Also, being accepted into the Residential College really made the difference for me. I really wanted a small enviornment within a large university.</p>

<p>I spent a weekend at UMich and LOOOOOOVED it. Good luck everyone.
GO BLUE!</p>

<p>congratulations! Are you in LSA, Ross, Engineering?</p>

<p>I sent in my application a few days ago.. I know its kinda late, but theres no harm in trying..</p>

<p>i think i might try for fall 08 as an incoming sophomore. i was waitlisted for freshman fall 07 and denied, but now i have more credentials including good AP scores so i should have a shot. The one thing that might kill me is my honors chem class, ugh.</p>

<p>Accepted for Winter 08. </p>

<p>My stats: </p>

<p>High School:
3.85 GPA
21 ACT</p>

<p>College:
1st year at top 100 LAC:
GPA: 3.45 - 33 credits. </p>

<p>Summer/ 2nd Year at Community College:
GPA: 3.85 summer GPA-- 6 credits.
I also sent my midterm grades for this semester and had 3 A's and one A-. </p>

<p>Lots of ec's</p>

<p>thats what im trying to do... what school do you go to?</p>

<p>do you think they'll give you a little more recognition if you go to one of the sister schools of Umich-Ann Arbor? Like UM-Dearborn or UM-Flint?</p>

<p>I'm a sophomore now and i really want to go to michigan, but if i transfer for fall 08 i'm pretty sure only enough credits will transfer over for me to start over as a sophomore, if that.</p>

<p>Stats:</p>

<p>Attending: Univ. of Oregon</p>

<p>GPA: 3.75</p>

<p>SAT's: 1260 of 1600</p>

<p>Moderate EC's </p>

<p>Went abroad last year to Argentina</p>

<p>and......that's it.</p>

<p>Damn, when did people start applying for transfer for Fall 2008? I didn't realize it was rolling like standard admissions. I was going to apply about two weeks before the deadline and use it as a safety option. But I guess that won't be happening.</p>

<p>I've already applied...but some people say thats even too late.</p>

<p>You really think its already to late to apply for Fall 2008 . I just applied, I had to wait for my first semester grades to become final to send in . (considering I ' am planning on transferring for my sophomore year). A.k.a "This is my freshmen year in college" and want to transfer to UofM</p>

<p>Hey, I just finished my first semester as a transfer @ umich and I thought i'd drop by to see if anyone had any questions about Michigan or just the transfer process in general. I know College Confidential was a big help to me last year.</p>

<p>Matt, definitely still apply. I applied for Fall 07 last february and was accepted a month later so it's nothing to worry about.</p>
