hoping for the best but good luck to everyone, seems as if i was straight up rejected
My portal says that too! Iām so nervous
if you go back a couple of pages, someone has posted the link where you can see the checklist
I donāt buy the theory that a missing x means outright rejection. I think it likely means deferral with no need for submission of fall grades. A couple of high stats posters with no āxā would be consistent with that as I have seen a number of very high stats folks deferred in past years, possibly to see if they opt out due to potential ED apps they may have submitted.
Just wanted to mention that Iām from NJ and have an X. Iām praying for good news. Umich is my top school.
IF DECISIONS COME OUT TODAY POST IF U HAD THE X OR NOT W UR DECISION AND STATS
@ullyses19 and @JF9 you have to scroll back to the poster who gave the link to click on - everyone sees that Early action message - you have to click on the link in the post to access the login that gets you to the checklist
Link to see if u have x: https://enrollmentconnect.umich.edu/apply/status?cmd=checklist
If in the past there werenāt many straight up rejections I think there are too many people without an x for it to be a complete rejection. Iād assume that at least some are probably deferrals if the theory that an x is an acceptance is correct.
If the X theory is true, then the lack of an X could still mean a deferral, since they only request fall grades from some, not all, deferrals.
@NJdadEngineer go back a few pages and find the link that someone sent to the page that shows the X. it will not come up when u go on ur portal
@Knowsstuff Hilarious!
Everyone try to find something to distract you or help you relax! Listen to music, do yoga/work out, pay attention in class, go shopping if youāre out of school! What will happen will happen. The decisions have been made, they will be out in the next 5.5 days, and there is nothing the worrying and anxiety will do for you except raise your BP and stress hormones. Take some deep breathsā¦
There is generally no REJECTIONS at EA process - unless you are WAY WAY WAY under represented in your application - they still have so many waves of admission left, how could they say NO to anyone? lol
Also, Many of us would be deferred no matter what the X is. As much as the X makes sense, there is hardly any in-states reporting back about having it?
And it seems possible that it has a lot more to do with how the system is set up. It could be if your school uses Naviance software to send grades, or another non-compatible system for sending grades. Some are automatically sent, some need to be requested from the school. The X could mean so many things if UM has to request, if it is manual or automatic.
We have sidetracked ourselves to talk about this since 10:30-sh (ET) and its now 12:25-ish. Hell of a distraction!
I wish you all the best. Keep your morale up! We donāt even know if they are coming out today. As many decisions happened (before the last three years of Weds. ) on a Friday. Maybe they are mid-review, there are more things than alpha order! Maybe Thursday is a middle ground to help admissions have less phone calls after release, and yet, enough to cover major issues. Too many āmaybesā for us to work ourselves up. The decision is not going to be changed at this point.
For all of our sake, lets keep ourselves positive and grounded. All of you have such amazing STATS, you are going to succeed where ever you go!
I agree with everybody saying the X for final grades indicates that the student is admitted but an X for fall grades does not mean deferral. Regular checks can also mean deferral.
@gmfalv Since youāve already been accepted, if you click the link, do you have the X?
@KSB2019 Iām not saying itās necessarily true; but I doubt it has to do with the schoolās software. I have the X; my friend from my school doesnāt.
I think the X means something - and I agree that it probably means an acceptance. For those without an X - could be a rejection, could be a deferral. Could be mean other things - have to figure it out. We have until 3 P.M. today.
