I'm sympathetic, but wrong thread. >> Ding Bar. (Make it a good one.)

Dinged (donged, the app is dead).

Ahh, I missed the call! My cell was off. She just told me to call her back, no mention of the amount. It is too late now. I have to wait until Monday.

Well congratulations in advance. I'm sure you'll get the full amount.

She is SO nice on the phone, too. You could tell she was truly excited to be calling.

I was finally able to talk to her. Full Darrow!

Congrats!

Seriously? But you had a crazy good PS. That's weird for Michigan.

Still "Complete". I'm convinced that my "Why Michigan" had 'tells' in it. It wouldn't have convinced me either. Deserved ding in that sense.

hey, soft, do you think it might have something to do with the risky topics of your PS and DS?

[paulinaporizkova]

rejected from Michigan today, waitlisted at UChicago. I was SURE it would be the other way around. Madness.

[BeachandRun23]

To those getting dinged, has your online status changed? or does it still say complete??

[paulinaporizkova]

still says complete....fuckers.

[softsgalore]

ThreeYears: I totally admit that's not only a possibility, but the primary one I am considering. My feelings on this development can be found in the ding bar.

I'm in MN, did not do UG here though....but I don't see how that's totally relevant?

[lshamlet]

I'm really sorry if this is a dumb question but I read some pages in the thread and couldn't find the answer.

Michigan updates your status with "Decision" before sending your mail out right? So the people who have been accepted and dinged via snail mail had that status before receiving your mail? Or did you all get decisions while still under Complete?

rejection letters might be in the mail for us west coast people...

[paulinaporizkova]

does mich fulfill regional quotas?

[DreamShake]

wow. why did you reapply this year? did your numbers improve?

[lshamlet]

does mich fulfill regional quotas?

No, people are just trying to judge if ding letters are in the future for them. The logic is that if you live in a state close to Mich and got a letter today, then people further away could be receiving letters soon. If you live far away from Mich, then people assume they're safe for now.

Also, reposting my question for the new page:
