One more waitlist addition to my daughter’s list. UIUC
Hopkins is a great school! Congrats!
It’s a very kind gesture. I know others do not feel this way, but we have encouraged this with DD22.

Such a strange process. What’s the point of giving kids the opportunity to apply early if you’re going to make them wait anyway?

For the Parents of Class of 2021 (last year), we had a virtual “waitlist bar.” There were just a ton a WL’ers last year.

That’s terrible.
I wish Ivy Day Is earlier so that the students who got accepted by the ivies can withdraw their apps from other colleges.

This, this, this. Ivy day being mid or early March would clear the decks for everyone. I suspect Ivy yield would remain somewhat static, and most other very competitive schools would see yield skyrocket and would have a much better sense of class makeup.

Thing #1 hasn’t bothered to look for notices from UofM today, but then he has been pretty chill about the whole process. I’ll ask him to check tomorrow.
Did anyone who got their decisions from umich who are from Oakland county, Michigan?
We are from in state too and was wondering since our area kids didn’t get anything yet
I’m wondering if the release was geographical for whatever reason? Nobody in my school and none of the people I know from surrounding schools got a decision today. (I’m in-state as well)

No. She had the HAIL interview back in December which did not go well. I was worried but people here told me that interview had no impact on decision at all.
Her ECI and mid-year report were submitted about a week after the postponement. I think her strong 7th semester grades carried her through the finish line. She earned A’s and A+'s for all her classes including 3 APs - Physics C Mechanics, AP German, and AP CSP. In the ECI, she talked about the Engineering Tour she went in December, why she wants to be an engineer, what Michigan Engineering attracts her the most, and stated that Michigan is her first choice.

Congrats to all who heard good news today! We are OOS and heard nothing/saw no change in portal, but kiddo was accepted at UIUC so we’re good. I actually didn’t see anyone OOS hear today so maybe the focus was on in-state.
