One of the admissions advisors on instagram. But only the one…
On the Michigan EA thread a poster said decisions were released for music and theatre majors.

anyone have any clues/insight re RD release other than early April?
As mentioned a few posts above, Michigan typically releases on the last Friday in March. There is no reason to expect any differently this year.
Would say this year Michigan has been anything but “typical”. Thus my asking if anyone had any actual insight or information rather than guesses.
I believe Michigan has been pretty typical other than the new ED process where they seem to have messed up and accepted too few, realized their mistake and then went back and accepted a batch right after the new year (that pulled in some high performing EAs they had already reviewed). Anything else atypical?

Hi All, D applied for double major. Got accepted to SMTD, postponed from Eng and waiting RD decision. How difficult is it to still accept SMTD and then either add a second degree or major in Eng or LSA? Enyone has recommendations to how to prepare if we we want to add a major in Eng or Physics/Math from LSA?
Congrats on SMTD. That’s a very tough get. You must have a very talented kid 
That is probably best answered by calling SMTD (or SMTD admissions) directly:

Here’s why I say that. One of our kids is in the CoE and we had many questions about double majors, both within CoE and LSA. Much of the info we found online was somewhat unclear, and in some cases out of date because the rules had just changed. And if SMTD refers you to LSA, get a specific name and number if possible because LSA is very large.
Anyone else hearing decisions tomorrow?
I am ok even if it comes out next week. This week has been brutal. It is difficult to take any more rejections.
I would rather just rip the band aid off, lol. Been waiting on UM since December. Assuming it’s a reject because they have passed on him twice. Would love to commit to another school.
in that case we really want to have smile on the face.
Same boat here,@Ephmen. Deferred in ED and still waiting. My son realizes he has been passed over 2xs, so it going to be a waitlist or a no. He is just LOVES Michigan and has grown up a Wolverine (legacy). He will likely be committing to UVA, which is a great outcome. He just needs to move on mentally from Michigan!! Good luck to everyone else waiting.

OMG , same. UVA right now is where he is most likely to go. He isn’t as in love with Michigan as your son, but direct admit to Ross is preferable to having to apply to Mcintyre as a frosh. He is also a legacy at UM and has some friends there already.

Ok this is a little crazy and probably doesn’t mean anything but…my kid applied EA and was postponed. We have no other connection to the school other than the pending application. I just received an email invitation to a UMich party for alumni and supporters. I don’t know how they would have gotten my contact info. I mean, why would admissions share contact info of prospective students’ parents with an alumni group?

I called the Undergrad Admissions # to try to ascertain the release date, and the staff person gave a clearly stock “by April 3, as per our website” response. I could frankly do without the coyness: just pick a date at this point and announce it. It doesn’t make it seem like a university that cares much about its future students.

I heard it is usually the last friday of the month, but Michigan is very atypical with how they did the ED deferral and then admitted a slew the first week after deferral. We were EA and deferred to RD. Tired of the wait.
