What are my chances and when should I hear...

<p>I've been wait listed at the university of Michigan. In the email where I was informed, u of m said I should expect to hear back by the end of June. However, my counselor got an email saying u of m planned on releasing near the end of may to beginning of June. Does anybody know the trend of the previous years on when students recieve notice of admission?</p>

<p>And I'm curious as to what experts think my chances are. I have a 3.8 in high school and a 29 on the ACT (35 on the math portion), have participated in three semesters at college. My father and brother went there, so I'm a legacy, am treasurer of my Spanish club. Work daily for a doctors office, participated in 5 years in my schools production of the musical. There are a couple other programs I do like church community service, and interact club which a charity group t my school. I know my chances are low to even get in, but would experts say I have a good chance if they choose to admit people?</p>

<p>If you have completed three semester of college, I assume you are applying as a transfer?</p>

<p>Your GPA and test scores are not out-of-whack, but if you have been wait-listed and are STILL waiting to hear back, the news is probably not good. The number of people who get off the waitlist and are admitted at this juncture (mid-May/early June) is something like 1%.</p>

<p>No, I’m in an enrichment program. I’m in high school but dual enrolled at community college and am putting those credits toward college. I’m in state as well</p>

<p>I agree with snackyx , if you have not heard anything by now, your chances are VERY slim on getting in. My S was wait listed and got his acceptance email May 3. The Admissions person indicated not many would be taken off the wait list this year. We are waiting to hear on aid before he makes his final decision.</p>

<p>Michigan admits between 0 and 50 from the waitlist each year…out of over 3,000 who accept a spot on the waitlist! The odds are next to nil. I would treat a waitlist as a rejection. I think only once in the last decade has Michigan truly dipped significantly into the waitlist, but that is not likely to happen this year as the yield was again higher than anticipated.</p>
