Deferred EA and have green dot

I’d prefer it if they released today — like right now.

@raej3west I think my D had the same thing. She had the ā€œgreen dotā€ for months when her application was marked ā€œcompleteā€. And then a month or so ago (i’m not sure when) it disappeared. Not just the dot, but that whole section at bottom of the portal page which was related to the status of the application. So my assumption is that’s where it would appear (or re-appear) when they update the portal.

@DrummerDad18 thanks! Guess we’ll keep our fingers crossed they post decisions tomorrow!

Guys we were part of last years group. Start portal watching tomorrow to see if the portal updates to ā€œAdmittedā€ like it did last year. Then Friday will be the day for the formal email and later in the day the money if awarded. And best of luck to you all and know that if you don’t get in, there is a better school for you. It all works out.

@SlimJim005 Good luck to you tomorrow. What 2 schools were you admitted at so far?

where does decision pop up? this is my most confusing portal by far lol

I was deferred and received a notification on the Cane Link, Student Center, then Message Center… Hope to receive better news tomorrow!!!

i was deferred ea too, under the student center main page, the messages on left hand column will have a 1 next to it when the letter comes in and you click on it

does miami fly people out for visits? i want to go but i don’t have the money to fly out there, i’m in the northeast

@ ollegedadto3 Texas A&M and SMU. Miami is my only other realistic shot st this point. I’m not expecting to be accepted.

The message above was for @collegedadto3

Well I’m pulling for you @SlimJim005 and hope you receive good news tomorrow!

i was deferred EA at miami too, i emailed a LOCI to my AO on monday which she added to my application but if decisions are coming out tomorrow i really hope i wasn’t too late… ugh oh well it is what it is. i hope they come out tomorrow and it’s good news for all of us!

@sagh527 I emailed an LOCI to my AO over prior to Monday, and I never heard back from the AO.

@collegedadto3 Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Is it just history that makes everyone think the release is tomorrow? Why hasn’t UM given us a head’s up?

@SlimJim005 they never gave us an update for EA also they kept saying they’ll release decisions in two weeks and then randomly sent them out that day. Ughh I really want some good news tomorrow. Also my AO responded about a day after I emailed her saying she added it to my application and that ā€œdecisions will be released no later than April 1ā€.

@SlimJim005 Hoping you get some love in the next day or two. I know you’ve been turned down at some schools that you liked, and it might feel like the deck is stacked against you, but at schools with such low admit rates and so many over-qualified applicants, it’s really more of a roll of the dice at each school than it is a pattern across schools. My own D had to audition for her programs, but if she were competing in the general pool, I think it would feel very random, even with good stats.

IMO there is a rhyme and reason to this madness but no one wants to truly discuss what it is. Anyways, good luck everyone and especially to @SlimJim005

Good luck to everyone and their children today. I hope everyone winds up where they are happy. Rooting especially for @SlimJim005 I hope you have good news today.
