bump? I'm guessing by the lack of responses that no one has? I guess we really are on hold for the time being.letsgojayhawks wrote:Congrats to all the scholarship recipients!
Has anyone who got the courtesy/hold email gotten admitted/rejected since?

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
Does anyone know how Michigan chooses to award Dean's Scholarships? My numbers are the same as crackberry's (and I have good softs like him, too) and I'm wondering if I can also look forward to a $45,000 scholarship.

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
Just got a letter for a dean's scholarship of $30,000 over three years. I'm amazed.

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
I have no idea, but the scholarship letter does say the Dean's Scholarships are awarded based on "academic excellence" and "leadership potential" or something along those lines (I don't have the letter on me). That's often stock language that doesn't actually mean anything, but who knows.kumba84 wrote:Does anyone know how Michigan chooses to award Dean's Scholarships?

I think it's likely. Most admits with similar numbers on LSN last year received the $45k, and crackberry and one other with similar numbers this year have reported it thus far.kumba84 wrote:Does anyone know how Michigan chooses to award Dean's Scholarships?

I really need to stop thinking about this. I suppose it's better than plotting to kill my damn neighbors, anyway.

Third post down the page. Also check out tinman's perspective on Hamilton vs. YLS (a decision he made last year, eventually picking YLS), which is farther down the page.BioEBear2010 wrote:As always, crack, gotta visit (which I will be doing in Feb).

Got it, thanks crackberry! Don't think I'll have to end up making that choice, though, haha.

lollol
Got the same thing and thought the same thing, I almost vomited all over my keyboard before opening it.

Just saw that my status was at "Decision" and logged into the Admitted Students site! My first T14 acceptance...feels pretty good.

With your acceptance, I'm practically the last 169, 3.6-3.7 on LSN without a Michigan acceptance AND I was the first to apply (by 10+ days). I'm beginning to wonder why they hopped over me to you guys.

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
Does michigan pay for some admitted students to attend the "admitted student visit weekends" (<- correct term?)
and if so would that be in your packet or do you have to ask?

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
Your LSN page says 168, which must by why you didn't come up in my LSN search. Did you write a "Why Michigan?" I didn't, but after getting their email last week telling us not to worry that it's taking so long to get a decision, I'm going to submit one in the next couple of days.grandslam wrote:I'm 169 3.6-3.7 too.

Your LSN page also doesn't list an application to Michigan... When did you apply?

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
Yeah, I changed my numbers a little on LSN. I applied 11/6 and did write a Why Michigan. I also got the email and I was thinking about sending in more information... but there's really nothing else I can send. I can't help but feel I must've screwed something up on my application.. why doesn't Michigan like me..?xcountryjunkie wrote:Your LSN page says 168, which must by why you didn't come up in my LSN search.

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
I applied a couple days before that, but alas, nothing yet. I agree with you, not much you can do unless you didn't make clear in your WM that you would attend if accepted. I'm holding out hope that my updated transcript (a whopping .02 increase in UGPA and .01 LSDAS GPA) will make the difference.grandslam wrote: Yeah, I changed my numbers a little on LSN.

...To get off on a bit of a tangent, do you know what they consider as more important: UGPA or LSDAS GPA?
