<p>I made the Fall '12 Transfer so I thought I may as well make another unofficial transfer thread. Post in here, talk your application status, your stats, get chanced, and let us know of any worries about the process and I, and many others, will be happy to help you out.</p>
<p>My Stats: College GPA: 3.76 Incoming Credits: 64
- 3.64 through 47 credits at my current 4-year university (15 are pending this Fall)
- 4.0 through 17 credits as guest student at local CC
ACT: 30
HS GPA: 3.6
Notes:
- In-state student
- Third time applying for admission
- Received full ride to current university (Wayne State Univ.)
- Student Senate President in High School
- Sparse business/finance extracurricular club participation in college</p>
<p>I’m applying as a sophomore transfer student. I was deferred and wait-listed the first time I applied, so I my send my application off on August 1st. Can someone chance me? </p>
<p>My stats:
29 credits taken (I applied with 43 pending)
3.78 GPA from Michigan State
4.131 High School Weighted GPA
28 ACT
Extracurricular Activities include: Youth Group Vice President, Job as a Teacher’s Assistant at Sunday School, Forensics, Debate, Bowling Team, MSU Democrats Club member, National Honors Society member, National Honors Society of Collegiate Scholars member. </p>
<p>Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. :)</p>
<p>You have a good chance. Your GPA is high enough, your HS GPA and ACT should not keep you back. The only thing that would cause you any trouble with be your 43 applying credits. UofM may want to see another semesters worth of grades seeing as that would boost you to the ~60 range. I’m not sure that would happen though as you are pending a finish at MSU with 43 credits and a 3.78 GPA.</p>
<p>College GPA: 3.81 (39 credits) University of Pittsburgh. By the end of Fall term will have 57 to transfer over.
SAT 1900. Transferring as a sophomore for LSA!</p>
<p>d4wnzz - Hi d4. All there is to say is that either we both get in, or neither one of us, haha! We have very similar stats so there is nothing really I can say except that we exceed the average accepted applicant stats that I have seen, so who knows!</p>
<p>@albo yup u are right. from what i have seen from fall 2012 transfer thread, a lot of people were accepted with a 3.6ish so i think we should be fine. but, u will never know whats gonna happen lol. But since we have almost 60 credits when we transfer, i dun think they will look that much on SATs and high school grades? cos my 1900 Sats was pretty bad lol…</p>
<p>Anyways Albo what does incoming credit means? By the end of fall 2013? or the grades when we apply? Damn i saw a couple of 3.8s and 3.9s rejects. Shooot lol. Thats not encouraging! haha</p>
<p>@albo23 - I guess all we can do now is play the waiting game. </p>
<p>I have one more question for you guys. If you look at the common app supplement, you see a question that reads, “Have you applied to U-M Dearborn or Flint before?” I replied no because I’ve only applied to U-M Ann Arbor. A couple days after I submitted my app, I looked at the print preview version and the question reads, “Have you applied to U-M before?” I was wondering if they’ll interpret that as I haven’t applied before.</p>
<p>@d4wnzz - Since we have ~60 credits, our high school credentials will not be weighed much.<br>
When I say incoming credit, I mean how many credits will you have on your college transcript, completed, the day you step on UofM’s campus. So although one may have 45 credits completed at this very moment, if they plan to take another 15 in the Fall, they will have 60 incoming credits when they step foot in Ann Arbor in Winter 2013.
I would not worry about the 3.8 and 3.9 rejections, if you meander over one column to the right, you will see they only had roughly 30 credits. The 3.8/3.9 rejects in my compiled statistics did not have the high school credentials to get them accepted; their high school credentials played a large factor into their transfer application because they only had ~30 credits.</p>
<p>@megagamerexe - That is a tricky questions, I am honestly not certain. Have you applied to any UofM campus before? If not, then you should have answered no. If yes, then it is a bit confusing. If you applied to UM-Ann Arbor, when you received an email saying your wolverine access login has been activated (all applicants get this), then check and confirm that the Winter '13 application is on there, and your previous application terms are on there as well.</p>
<p>@albo thats one huge relief! hahah. I will have at least 55 lol. anyways u guys ubmitted the application? im doing some revision on my essays. Should be sent in by mid august!</p>
<p>@albo23 - I’ll call U of M and see if they can change it, but I’ll definitely be sure to check wolverine access first. Did the people who get denied have 30 credits when applying or 30 credits when they would have stepped foot in Ann Arbor for their transferring semester?</p>
<p>@d4wnzz - I sent off my application on August 1st because I thought that would help to get it in as early as possible.</p>
<p>My application isn’t full complete yet, my summer classes end this week so then I will have to send the transcript from the college. My application was migrated over from my Fall '12 transfer attempt so I don’t have to submit any essays :).</p>
<p>Does applying early really help that much if we’re all pretty much receiving our decisions in October? I know that since U of M has rolling admissions, they evaluate the applications in the order that they are received. Do they hold onto decisions and release them in waves like they did for Freshman admission?</p>
<p>I can’t imagine it is much of a help. Applications are due by October 1st. Decisions come out after that, that is the only information I have :/</p>
<p>GPA: 4.0
Will have 60+ credits after Fall of 2012.</p>
<p>When are you guys planning on submitting your application?
And does anyone know the transfer acceptance rate for Umich and it’s average SAT/GPA for accepted students for the Winter?</p>
