My son was at a similar Michigan private feeder school. In his grade they had 100% EA , 75% overall. You are extremely likely to be admitted but APPLY EA!!! All bets are off for RD. Kids with 3.3 and 30+ were admitted. For the few private feeders they give a GPA boost for attending the school. Most of his HS classmates are at Michigan now in LSA, Nursing, Engin, SMTD, Stamps, etc.

Don’t be discourage if you are deferred, admit is still very likely, especially if you get the 4.0 you anticipate for fall.

I’d still apply to honors and MSU as your safety. At his school they had a special EA for MSU - apply in early September and you would get a decision 1-2 weeks later - in person from the admin officer (!). Lots of kids did it. Your school may too. And apply to your other schools, of course.

Michigan (and MSU) do consider your race, by state law.

Note that Michigan will re-weight your GPA , all A=4, all B=3 etc. so getting an A- is much better than a B+
