I have not received a decision yet. Does anyone have any idea when the next wave of decisions will be released? I applied on 12/31.
Accepted! So happy!
LSA
OOS
Originally deferred from EA
ACT 29, GPA 3.86
Sent a letter of interest and first semester grades were my best ever with my most rigorous schedule!
Why doesn’t the University sent out denials as well as acceptance letters…Making these students wait to get rejected is plain wrong, and shows the true charateristics of the University…
They have sent out rejections
I got my acceptance today! So yes this is the next wave
Goodluck everyone!
Congrats @bug2996 and @carlsandburger! Very useful to know that the next wave of admissions is happening today. Keeping fingers crossed for my son.
@mesdeuxgarcons, apparently the wave has been finished, since WA updated around midnight today. Just hope that your son gets in the next wave, around March.
Congratulations! Was the acceptance via email or in your Wolverine account?
Accepted! Checked from WA at 9:00 PM PST last night!
so no more today??
Daughter just got her acceptance to LSA via email. OOS, deferred EA, sent in letter of interest within the past few weeks, got a great response. Keep the faith, everyone!
Was initially deferred before being accepted today, keep your heads up!

Essays (rating 1-10, details):
Common app was an 8/10, was unique in the sense that I made a “soundtrack to my life” with songs accompanied with anecdotes of important events in my life.
Michigan supplements were a 6.5/10, a bit cookie cutter, nothing too amazing
Recommendations (rating 1-10, details):
Teacher Rec #1:
8.5/10 Didn’t read, but I’m guessing it was good. Spanish teacher who taught me for two years. I won an award in his class.
Teacher Rec #2:
7/10 Didn’t read either, but guessing it was pretty generic. Was written by my precalc teacher who liked me but didn’t LOVE me
Counselor Rec:
9/10, Guessing it was good, was pretty close with her and knows she liked me a fair amount
Additional Rec:
9/10, Again, guessing it was good. Written by my football coach who picked me as a captain.

Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected:
My counselor wrote an email to the admissions office in addition to her first one. She stated that UMICH was my top school and then wrote very kindly of me. I think I was on the cusp before and her email pushed me over the edge.
Where else were you accepted/deferred/rejected:
BC: Deferred
Villanova: Accepted
UMiami: Accepted w. Presidential Scholarship
Indiana @ Bloomington: Accepted w/ direct admit to Kelley and Hutton Honors College
General Comments:
If you really really want to go to Michigan, I would talk to your guidance counselor and see if she’d be willing to do anything or write you something to help you out. Good luck to all and Go Fuggin Blue!!
