<p>beast53,</p>
<p>you were ER eligible if all required items were recieved on or before nov 20 (they say nov 1 on their website, but a few people on here were told by michigan that the “real” date was the 20th to give them time to process things received at the last minute)</p>
<p>oh wow, ok thanks for the clarification!</p>
<p>a friend of mine got into the engineering school already. however, she’s not competition as i’m applying to lsa.</p>
<p>I know people have been saying that there are no denials for ER, but I know a person at my school got denied. They didn’t have good scores but still; a denial among the masses. Just wanted to clear that up :)</p>
<p>ok wow i’m really nervous about my app, because i sent in everything except the application itself (transcript, rec letters, etc.) before nov 20, but just recently mailed the application, like december twenty something. coupled with the fact that by GPA is not stellar by any standard (3.2 something UW), this makes me really uneasy. do you guys still think i have a decent shot?</p>
<p>to psp-fifa-fan, i called today with my guidance counselor since i hadnt heard anything and the admissions person that i talked to gave me the impression that they messed up my application since they asked more than a few diff questions about my app. and she said that my app is now high priority and i should hear soon, sometimes things fall through the cracks i guess.</p>
<p>When do you think’ll be the next decision round? And if we don’t get admitted this round, does that basically mean we’re not qualified for scholarships, since the scholarship people have to deposite by Feb. 15-ish?</p>
<p>Do i have a chance at getting into ross or the college of engineering?</p>

General Comments/Congratulations/Venting/Commiserations,etc: Excited that I got into Michigan. However, it is quite expensive, and is not my first choice. My first choice is USC, but I don’t hear from them until April. If I get direct admission to the Ross it would definitely help me lean in their direction. I hear only like 50 incoming students get direct admission to Ross. Good luck to all who have yet to hear.</p>
