Are you applying for this Winter or next Fall?

No, I am in a liberal arts college in the U.S.

@Matisyahu Winter 2013

[Matisyahu]

@dec453 have you written all your essays and stuff?

[dec453]

Everything has been completed, and both my application and supplement have been submitted via the Common App

[Matisyahu]

@dec453 I think you have a very good chance man. I think the average GPA for transfer acceptances was around 3.6.

Everything that I sent in has officially been received by the University! When did people start finding out last year? I'm so anxious :X

[d4wnzz]

I dont know if LAC GPA 3.54, Top 18%, Club Vice President, four recommendation letters, nice job positions in College, Fluent Japanese, Human Rights Initiative Volunteer, manager of club Facebook would work for me to U-M

@cato - Last year, people found out the second week of October.

[Matisyahu]

@albo23 You should probably get your decision on October 1st if you're lucky.

[albo23]

Ugh I just hate thinking about decisions. The wait is excruciating, I've got deferred and rejected as a freshmen applicant. Then rejected as a transfer applicant, and now I'm waiting again for the fourth time.

[Matisyahu]

Dude I'm fairy positive you will be accepted.

@albo23: This is the third time I apply for school completely by DIY. Could I know why are you so "loyal" applying to U-M particularly?

[albo23]

Well I live in the State of Michigan, I have many friends at the university, I don't like my current university despite my full-ride scholarship, and since I am an in-stater, I'll pay about $13,000 per year after financial aid.
