Glad to see everyone's cycles are going well, I don't have much to share but here it is:

AA Male, numbers I'll keep quiet on until I stumble upon a miraculous acceptance, however just got my JS1 pretty recently :D ! Haven't heard back from any other schools as of yet but I'm hoping for the best.

Does Michigan give travel subsidies?

FWIW one of the attorneys at DOJ graduated from Michigan and she says it was the best decision she ever made. She chose there over Harvard.
