Michigan c/o 2020 applicants (2016-17) Forum

[katthegreat11]

Ughhhh come on, Mich, give me a decision! (preferably acceptance )

Looking at LSN, it seems like everyone admitted so far (that put their data up) submitted at the end of September, and they're now just getting to the early October submits... *fingers crossed*

I got one last year though so I hope that means something!

I'm really hoping for a decision next week. It would be wonderful if I could get into my first T14.

Congrats on those admitted. For any future Summer Starters, I will have a fantastic fully-furnished sublease, close to the school, available for your first semester. PM if interested.

Does anyone have an idea if visiting the school and speaking with an admissions counselor or something would increase my chances even just a tiny bit? (I obviously know it won't magically get me in, just wondering if it'll at least be another positive soft, or it won't matter at all)

At the least it'll show an interest in the school, which could help protect you from getting yield protected. You could mention it in your Why Michigan essay to show you have a real interest in the school and aren't just applying because it's T14

True. But I'm not sure if it'll increase your chances any.

I doubt it will, if it did then everyone would be signing up for visits. I was just thinking it might help if you've got numbers that put you at risk of YP and you wanted another opportunity to show interest in the school. Otherwise I seriously doubt it will have any impact at all.

When did you submit?

[katthegreat11]

Finally accepted today, woohoo! I now see what everyone means about the weird email.

[UghNonAmus]

GOT IN TODAY!!! Was my top choice (ED'd) by far. 169/3.25 GPA so pretty classic splitter, 8 years out of college.

Applied: 11/15 (ED)
Accepted: 11/29

[playersball]

Admitted early this morning! Submitted 10/28, received my status checker on 11/4, and admitted 11/29. So about a one month turn around, very pleased about that.
50<Gpa<75, LSAT just above the 75th

[taxman14]

Finally accepted today, woohoo! I now see what everyone means about the weird email.

+1 thank god I knew I wasn't the only one who thought that was weird af. Someone on here thought it was normal- I thought it was bizarre as shit

It's bizarre but funny, I liked it haha. Definitely stands out from the rest.

[hellohalo]

I'm not an early bird. But I submitted my application around 11/12. But as of today 11/29, my status is still "incomplete- in process". Does this sound right?

This is probably just me being paranoid, but I'm getting worried I was YP'ed or something....I'm above both 75ths.

App was submitted on 10/19, but not sure when it went complete because there were some problems with my status checker. It was definitely complete by 11/6, though.

Someone tell me I'm overreacting that I haven't heard back yet

Sounds like you definitely might be YPed. Look on LSN, they waitlisted a ton of people over 75ths last year.

And I'm in the same boat as you. Above 75ths and radio silence since submission in Sept.

From what I've seen, they are just getting to late October submits. I submitted at the same time (with worse numbers). If you get wl, I think it will be easy to write a letter of continued interest to get accepted if you can convince them you actually want to go
