Michigan (AKA Hogwarts) c/o 2016 Applicants Thread 2012-2013 Forum

Thanks guys!

Kanye, dproduct, other forgotten- send in a loci if you haven't already!!!

I second this. I made it very clear that Michigan was up there on my list, and I was in pretty much in continuous contact with the office in the two weeks or so between complete and acceptance. I think they really value candidates who truly want to be there.

Wow! Meganarley inspired me to actually check my checker and I'm in! Crazy!

So stoked!

Congrats man!

Great to hear.

Congrats BigZuck!

Do you guys think a LOCI would be premature if I applied ~6 weeks ago and went complete ~2 weeks ago?

I would say yes, unless you didn't include a why mich initially in which case it might be a good idea to send one in.

Yeah, it's early. I applied in September and waited until February to send it. Give it at least a month. Still think you'll be fine based on how your cycle has gone so far and the numbers they are targeting.

Also what meganarley said.

For the record. I didn't quite send an LOCI, but I also didn't feel my PS was that strong and I hadn't written any "Why X's" so I sent a few choice schools an "addendum" that acted both as a why x and I guess a bit as an LOCI as well because it showed them I was still interested, thinking about their school specifically and that I did some research on aspects of that school I would enjoy. Michigan was one of these schools.

Yeah basically this. You can kind of use not writing a why mich as an excuse to send them over one to consider along with your app. But don't call it an LOCI, and just make it all Mich specific. 'Bout a page and a half was mine.

Yeah I sent what I thought was a pretty good Why Mich in originally, so I'll just (try to) be patient and wait for a bit. Getting in to Michigan was my ultimate dream goal when I decided to head back to UG and try for a top law school despite 2+ years of ~2.5 GPA on my transcript, so an acceptance would be pretty amazing.

I think I'm going to. It's been well over a month since I last sent anything to them.

Happy for you man. I'm still complete. I've already written a LOCI. I honestly do not know what I would say in another. Obviously already wrote a "Why Mich?" as well. This is far and away my #1, but I think LOCI #2 would come off as desperate. Thoughts?

I wouldn't send another loci Maybe do something big and put it on your resume or something and send that again just to update their paper trail... ?

If by "something big" you mean beat Pac-Man, not dying one time, I almost did that shit last week.

I'm nervously laughing right now.

Is there a formal way to e-mail the dean and list the unspeakable things I would do for an acceptance?

i would send him pictures of you performing said unspeakable things on a full-size doll with a printed picture of the dean's face taped on. no text, he'll get the idea.

[curious66]

As one of the less vocal of the forgotten...I still have condolences for the forgotten...and am here to give you hope.

In today. Complete early December. Sent a LOCI a week ago, but impossible to know if that helped.

Needed this emotionally after WL at GULC and UCLA.
