Class of 2024 Early Action Thread

So do we think there’s still a chance decisions will come out today? Or would there have been a social media announcement by now?

@knowstuff Sorry for this - I know everyone is typing fast and really stressed but I can’t help but point out that it is “you’re”, not “your”. Just one of my pet peeves. Of course, I’m sure I have a bunch of grammatical errors myself!

@UMmomm… Blame my phone… Lol ??. Autocheck is not good. Yes, doing this between patients… Lol…

Do doctors need good grammar? :lol:

I keep checking this forum every hour or so to see the updates lol. I am SO nervous about Mich decisions because it’s my top choice and my stats aren’t on their level… I’m hoping my extracurriculars and essays pull through!

@Knowsstuff

Good to know!!!
At some point, outside this forum, would love to hear your perspective of BME vs traditional natural sciences path to med school. You have been a good help to all of us.

Can someone call the Michigan Admissions office and ask them when the decisions will be out?

I see many people talking about how strong your essay is. It seems subject. And only those who read a large quantity of essays specific to admissions essays could say whether it’s strong or not comparitively speaking.

same here! From what I’ve read, it seems as though we have a better than slight chance with our scores being a little below

My friend’s college counselor told her it’s tomorrow!

Wow!! Is this confirmed?

This is a classic post from last year’s EA thread by skieurope:

My son’s counselor 2 years ago said they learned the date a day or two before, but my daughter is at a different school and they don’t seem to know as much or share as much.

I’ll re-post for anyone new to the thread.

I’m so nervous but also excited! Good luck everyone!

@sushiritto THANK YOU!! I am hoping for tomorrow as well. This week is exam week at my school and things are already really stressful so this waiting game has only added. Thank you for the previous years data, I have been trying to find that post in this threat. Good luck to everyone here! If you are worried like me, and checking your portal every five minutes know this: things are going to be alright in the end. Everyone here is extremely qualified and deserving of a spot. And remember, do not base your self-worth upon where you land at college this fall, college is what YOU make of it. If anyone finds out decisions tomorrow, please post on here. Even though I have never met any of you in real life, I feel really connected and supported by all of you through this process. Thank you everyone for being so helpful and uplifting to others. Best of luck!!!

@cadavisj10 thanks I needed to hear this!!

@cadavisj10 Thank you so much for this amazingly uplifting and positive post! I know it’s hard to see it at the moment, but what you are saying is so true. As amazing as it would be to get into our dream schools, it doesn’t determine our self-worth or how smart we are. I just know that we will all end up where we are supposed to. College will be an amazing and enriching for all of us. Anyway, good luck to everyone who is waiting for decisions. I’m also hoping for that UMich “you’re admitted” letter tomorrow :slight_smile:

@ROSSX2. No problem. Pm me or swing over to the engineering forum on CC. We have discussed it over there and there might current thread. It’s a common question

@gauti07. I did this last year for you guy’s and all they will say is “before December 24th”
