<p>Is it really that hard to transfer to UM-Ann Arbor LSA?
I’ve heard from several sources that it is by far the most competitive school to transfer into within UM. Does anyone know the transer rates for UM LSA?</p>
<p>According to U of M’s website, transfer admission into LSA is “highly selective”. [Office</a> of Undergraduate Admissions: Transfer Students - Requirements](<a href=“http://www.admissions.umich.edu/transfers/admissionreq.php#lsa]Office”>http://www.admissions.umich.edu/transfers/admissionreq.php#lsa)</p>
<p>If you scroll through and look at all the other colleges that are in U of M, none of them contain the words “highly selective” in them, making LSA the most competitive school to transfer into at U of M.</p>
<p>Sorry, but I don’t know the transfer rate for LSA.</p>
<p>Hi Chris23, I want to transfer to U of M ann arbors LSA school also… but am very worried that I won’t get in because its so highly selective. I’m coming from a community college and think that may be a disadvantage. But I figure if I can’t get into ann arbor, i’ll go to the one in dearborn. Do you know anything about the dearborn school? Why its not looked upon as highly as the ann arbor one? Its still U of M… but i dont know.</p>
<p>Do you know when applications come out for next fall, and is it rolling admissions?</p>
<p>Thank in advance!</p>
<p>I got accepted to the LSA with a 3.5 from community college, lots of ECs, and some volunteer work. I believe the application was supposed to come out sometime in August.</p>
<p>The dearborn school is much less competitive but it’s still a good school to go to if you can’t get into ann arbor, however it does not have dorms which is a major drawback to some, and Dearborn isn’t my favorite city on the planet. There’s nothing much wrong with it, it’s just not much of a college town. I still applied just in case, though, it’s not a bad school.</p>
<p>For the dearborn school, do you still have to apply as early as for ann arbor?</p>
<p>I don’t know, I applied to both in late December when the app was due Feb 1st. Dearborn is much less selective than Ann Arbor but it’s still not quite a cakewalk.</p>
<p>A useful little tidbit I didn’t throw in here earlier for some reason, according to the website the average transfer student’s GPA is a 3.6. It’s not as hard to get in as a transfer as it is as a freshman.</p>
<p>Hi, I’m applying to Ann Arbor for Fall of 2010. Umich takes about 1000 students for transfer but i can only assume most is from Community Colleges and amazing top schools, but i could be wrong. The application for '10 is already out. I mean i think its competitive, but pending on your essays (there are 3), and your gpa it depends.</p>
