S25 OOS WL for LSA.
Was his top choice but we have other options (NYU, UCSB, UCI)
I feel grateful for his acceptances and feel bad for kids who didn’t get what they wanted.

The Accepted Student Tour online. If you could sign up for it before the decisions coming out it was a sign that you got in. If not, it indicated you were WL or rejected.

Daughter in-state, rejected from Engineering RD. She’ll be accepting Michigan State, plans to pursue Mechanical Engineering with aerospace specialty. She’s comfortable with this and I’m happy for her.

from their site - interesting the jump in applicants they had to pull from waitlist last couple years, likely due to shotgunning approach many top candidates are doing these last few years..

  • Fall 2021: 73%, or 13,149 applicants
  • Fall 2022: 72%, or 15,076 applicants
  • Fall 2023: 67%, or 18,575 applicants
  • Fall 2024: 76%, or 18,793 applicants

Applicants who were admitted from the waitlist:

  • Fall 2021: 0.5%, or 69 applicants
  • Fall 2022: 0.5%, or 77 applicants
  • Fall 2023: 5%, or 983 applicants
  • Fall 2024: 5%, or 973 applicants

Is it possible it could increase again with so many more applicants or no?

Question: is there currently anyone who got into CS advance selection, or is everyone listed as “postponed?”
i.e. have most CS decisions been made yet?

It does seem like everyone is waitlisted. LOL. What percentage of applicants are rejected?

Note that I specifically mean the “CS advanced selection” tab of the application portal, not being waitlisted.

Yea sorry I was responding to different post

This is what I currently see there:
“Your decision for advance selection into the computer science major has been postponed. A decision will be provided by early April. This does not affect your admission to your primary University of Michigan college. While you await a decision, you may learn more about other programs of study involving computing at U-M on our Admissions website.”

Weird that it is “postponed” and not just a waitlist. Also weird that the “postponed” CS decisions are being provided in early April (and not May or late April).

I got accepted btw and I had the tour
