I'm sorry about Umich, but I'm sure you'll get great offers with that 179 soon!! Good luck!kingsmill wrote:Well I submitted a diversity essay since I'm asian.IHaveDietMoxie wrote:probably yp, did you write any supplemental essays?kingsmill wrote:Bad news strikes again.
Rejected from UMich, which I am attending right now as a master student.
Don't have the slightest idea why.
PS: numbers are 179(first time 167), undergrad abroad. Application sent mid Jan.
However, it's definitely not YP because I have very very low undergrad GPA(72/100), and my graduate score isn't that good either. I got the feeling that it is because of the GPA. But as low as my undergrad GPA is, they admitted me as a master student. Maybe graduate school and law school don't share the same principles. I really love AA, Umich, and this rejection hurts, a lot.
And now I'm really worried about my chances at other T14 schools.

Just withdrew after being accepted way back on Nov. 10. My withdrawal will also free up the $45,000 in scholarship money Michigan offered me. Good luck everyone.

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
You can't get both (or at least not if you get $45K or more... not sure about the $30k, but I imagine it's the same rule).questions wrote:If I were to get a merit-based (Dean's, etc.) scholarship at Michigan, would that prevent me from being awarded need-based aid to make up (part of) the difference? Or, can you get both?

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
Was just posting on TLS when a new message arrives this minute in my mailbox, from U of Mich. Since I have nothing to do with Mich except waiting for their decision, I open it, my heart jumping:
"Dear x:
Hi, I am a professor at the University of Michigan's School of Public Health. Our research group is conducting a confidential survey about how students are handling the stresses of university life and how well their mental and emotional health needs are being met.
You are one out of a relatively small portion of students at x University who were randomly selected for this survey. The survey takes 15 minutes on average to complete."
What a wrong time, and what a bad choice of a sample! I would screw their entire statistics

If I'm still pending and expecting news any day now, is it too late to send a Why Michigan?

Yeah, definitely send it. But keep in mind, with Dean Z out in Annapolis, I don't think any new decisions will come out until she gets back...oneforship wrote:Send it.LieutKaffee wrote:If I'm still pending and expecting news any day now, is it too late to send a Why Michigan?

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
How long do you usually wait to get the complete/status checker email? I submitted 1/29, got a received email on 2/4 and haven't heard a peep since. Should I call to check or just keep waiting?
Advice is much appreciated!

Re: michigan 2010 applicants
Does anyone know if submitting additional materials moves you back in the submission order? I'd heard some schools bump you to the back if you do; has the symptoms of a dumb rumor, but better safe than sorry. My app needs my Why Michigan badly due to my TTT GPA.
