If accepted, how likely are you to attend?

Are you kidding? It's my first choice. Consider my seat deposit sent.

It's high on my list but it's not THE school I'm waiting to hear back from.

It's high on my list, but I can probably be swayed by more money from another school.

Meh... I applied because it's a T14 - we'll see how my cycle goes.

Really just plan on using it for scholarship negotiation purposes.

Still feel really unsure. I'll probably visit or go to ASW to get a better feel for the school/location.

In this morning by status checker!!! There was an e-mail at 5:30am, but it went to my Promotions folder. Not cool Google.

At or above both 75th. Applied 10/20. Good luck today everyone!

1. Congrats, theothercat!

2. Re: the current poll, what's the difference between "complete, waiting for review," and "under review"? I thought the Michigan status checker went straight from "complete" to a decision. Hope I'm not missing something...

Good point. I think you're right. Not gonna lie though, I'm just gonna leave it. But yes. I think complete signals that it's ready to be reviewed and then you get a decision update next.

Sorry, with so many status checkers doing different things, it's hard to remember which makes note of what :lol:

Michigan rose in the T14 ranking last year, right? Do you expect its awarded scholarship amounts will reflect the new ranking?

Did you submit ED?

Submitted app on 11/13, 11/14 initial email (we received your initial application), 11/21 status tracker email. App still in-process
No, I'm RD. I also got my status checker on 11/21, so I bet yours will be complete soon too.

Anyone have any idea how long I should expect the turnaround to be if I submitted 11/14 and went complete today? I know some people submitted in September and didn't hear until November, but do you think there's a chance I will know before Christmas? I'm very antsy because I love Michigan.
GPA>25, LSAT>75, wrote a Why Mich.

Received my status checker and went complete today! Are there any accepted estimates of when I could hear back?

Not sure how long the wait will be, but it looks like they're just starting to get to the people who submitted at the end of October. I'm guessing the time between complete and decision will continue to get longer as the volume of apps grows.
