Did anybody else receive a decision ?
Looks like I’m not included in the wave : / or hopefully I’ll know tomorrow…</p>

<p>This is so stressful</p>

<p>My son has a number of friends who were “in” contingent on them attending the summer classes and a satisfactory grade in them. I am 99% if you got the summer info that you’re in with that contingency.</p>

<p>My son was just accepted into LSA. His decision was posted on WA, no email yet. He is thrilled beyond belief!!! There are acceptances coming - don’t lose hope!!! We live in Colorado.</p>

<p>Bummer–just checked my son’s status and he was put on “extended” wait list. He is not going to be a happy camper tomorrow morning when he finds out, as both of his brothers were accepted to U of M. :frowning: I think it’s time to move on.</p>

<p>Congratulations to all who get to see those special 8 letters, “A-C-C-E-P-T-E-D”, even if it is conditional to attending over the summer.</p>

<p>Got waitlisted.</p>
