@billcsho You mean there is still hope? They said if no opening spot we will hear from them in the end of June. Till now some students already got accepted, so the remaining students rarely get accepted in the end.
@fash97 There is still hope until they officially announced the admission numbers for enrollment deposit. Waitlist admissions were sporadic in the past and not in a batch like at UCB this year. I would not be surprised if there were a few admissions in the last couple weeks even they said they expect more in mid-June.
Anybody heard anything from UMich lately?
@becky8899 Nope. They said we need to wait and hope the decision by the end of June. They still do not decide how many to admit. Many schools are starting to charge students. Does UMich even care about their waitlist students? If they finally admit very few students from waitlist, that will be totally awful and inhumane torture for us. @billcsho Did UMich released admission number this year?
Fash, the UofM waitlist has always been fairly large and the use of it has always been fairly small. Personally I don’t expect much different this year. But I will be surprised if they all of a sudden let 100 kids in later this month and happy for those that switch up where they are enrolled and take up the acceptance! It’s not inhumane and it’s not torture and people should really understand what the waitlist means.
Anything new on the Michigan wait list?
This waiting is killing me.
People have posted hearing of some acceptances since May 1, so I have to believe that, other than in a few isolated cases, almost everyone remaining will be receiving a rejection. Whether it’s prior to June 30th or not is anyone’s guess.
@BSM1987 They said that some students will be admitted in the final patch, and not all of them will be rejected.
Don’t be optimistic but there is hope indeed. This week they will release the final decision.
I have talked to the admission officer today, and she said that some people will still be admitted.
Just got off the waitlist. LSA OOS, applied early action and then deferred. There’s still hope, Go Blue!!
@albany2014 Congrats! How did they tell you? Email?
it came in an email at about 3:30 EST
Admitted! What a fucking surprise after such wait. International student
@aspect121 Congrats mate 
What college are you in?
Seems like hope is waning.
If I don’t hear by this weekend, I’ll assume a rejection haha
@derprage I think he is lsa. I’m waitlisted by Engineering and no one got accepted according to the Internet. I am really regretted to apply for Engineering. Anyway, good luck with you all. Either in umich or in other schools, there is great future for everyone
@fash97 I am also regretting applying to Engineering. It seems like it is much easier to get accepted to LSA and then transfer to Engineering. I would advise anyone applying next year to consider this option unless you have some awesome backup schools.
Not a good idea. It’s pretty hard to do.
Actually it’s really not hard to do at all. As long as you do well in the pre-req classess, a transfer from LSA to Engineering is easy to do. It happens all the time. I actually applied to LSA because I was nervous about that. My math score was “low” and my first priority was to be at Michigan. It worked out well for me and I think I may be staying in LSA.
^ Oh really? I figured that since Michigan is pretty strict about pre-req’s and course selection that it was hard to transfer between schools. My bad.
I was accepted as a transfer from another uni to Michigan LSA for physics/math and recently found out I can transfer into the CoE if I really wanted to, since I have all the required courses done.
Seems like to transfer into the CoE cross-campus they still require an essay and resume, though.
