Really disappointed in U Michigan(assuming other postings correct)

They said there was no admission release on 3/26

No. That’s incorrect. The original post clearly indicated that the UM admissions office said no decision “tonight.” After midnight would qualify so they actually gave incorrect information. Not sure why so many people are trying to twist this to protect the admissions office. They either were purposely misleading/dishonest or they made a mistake (most likely the latter).

So OP, I understand why you’re frustrated and if I were in your shoes I’d be even more frustrated by people trying to twist the facts. Of course, advice such as telling you in a condescending way that maybe its not the school for your family should certainly be ignored.

To me, its a very minor black eye for the school, consistent with other negatives you get when you attend (or apply to) a very large school. Those negatives have to be weighed against the many positives.
