<p>I know that it is done differently now due to the affirmative action debate but is this an accurate predictor of the admissions process. They said 100 points would get you accepted and 90 or below would probably be a rejection and that between 90 and 100 would probably be a waitlist</p>

<p>would Maryland be an underpresented state for the university of Michigan?</p>

<p>I did it and i go to a pretty good private school in D.C. and I have a good courseload…i ended up with a 111.</p>

<p>12+4+2+76+4+3=101!</p>

4

<p>Without being african american which i am I would have gotten a 91</p>

5

<p>That chart is useless now. Applications are not based on a points system at all, and they are looked at holistically.</p>

6

<p>Yeah, they stopped using this some time back.</p>

7

<p>would the admissions process be kind of similar or not at all?</p>

<p>From wikipedia:</p>

<p>Gratz v. Bollinger, 539 U.S. 244 (2003)[1], was a United States Supreme Court case regarding the University of Michigan undergraduate affirmative action admissions policy. In a 6–3 decision announced on June 23, 2003, the Supreme Court ruled the university’s point system was too mechanistic and therefore unconstitutional.</p>

<p>This is not a good predictor of present admissions. It does illustrate the sorts of things that Michigan emphasizes, which are grades and curriculum, but there is no formula now.</p>

<p>It is also not true that 100 would get you in. The admit point varied from year to year, sometimes from week to week depending on the number of applications.</p>

<p>o sry thats just what i saw somewhere</p>

11

<p>5 points for men in nursing… haha.</p>

<p>I think it’s pretty much the same thing now regardless of what the ‘official’ stance is. Having a high “Michigan” GPA and test score will still get you in. And being a URM with decent or even below average stats will still get you in, probably with some kind of scholarship.</p>

13

<p>I don’t believe Maryland is an underrepresented state for Michigan. Probably would have to be South Dakota or Hawaii.</p>

14

<p>what kind of scholarships does michigan give to minorities</p>

15

<p>A couple of my friends with a single Native American or Mexican grandparent were granted full-tuition scholarships.</p>

16

<p>78 (GPA)+20 (Scholarship Athlete)+11 (sat) +8 (school)+extracurricular activities, haha it is bad that they don’t accept students by this table :)</p>

17

<p>Wow, that is a ridiculously idiotic chart.</p>

18

<p>Yeah HAHAHAHAHA, you guys do realize that if you’re an in-state student who goes to a good public school and take a rigorous courseload, this chart would indicate that you would get into UMich even if you performed relatively poorly in school and on standardized tests.;)</p>

19

<p>You stilll need a 3.6 or better … which isn’t that easy at the top public school with a rigorous courseload … unless you are an URM or have a socio-economic disadvantage.</p>
