University of Michigan - Deferral Thread

<p>I got deferred and kinda annoyed they haven’t just told me a straight up yes or no. It’s the not knowing…</p>

<p>@bayernmunich31 welcome to the unfortunate club :frowning: </p>

<p>hope its this friday lads! lol… hope we all get in … then we can meet up maybe</p>

<p>I’m so nervous… the result is coming out tmr right? but not for everyone… :/</p>

<p>Not to be THAT guy BUT…UM has made it clear that Friday has nothing to do with anything. They actually made a point to stop feeding the rumor mill on College Confidential…which I found semi-amusing.</p>

<p>Haha I saw that </p>

<p>I was deferred from early action to engineering and I got an email from Michigan two days ago saying that I was accepted to Michigan only if I switched my application to LSA for the upcoming summer term. Today I got my acceptance email to LSA. Did this happen to anyone else? </p>

<p>@mythbusternolan Congrats! I think you are lucky</p>

<p>@mythbustermolan did you put down a second choice major? I was going to do that but I also knew engineering was all I wanted… but congrats!</p>

<p>@mythbusternolan…congrats! Take the acceptance to LSA and worry about changing to Engineering later…feel blessed Lad!</p>

<p>Thanks! Yeah I think I’m pretty lucky that I got in too. @potatoo I don’t remember putting a second choice major other than engineering. Was there an option for LSA summer term on the application?</p>

<p>idk about summer term but i knew i had the option to pick LSA as a second choice but i didnt</p>

<p>@mythbusternolan, My son also applied got deferred in December. Do you mind share your status ( GPA, ACT/SAT and Instate or OOS)?</p>

<p>@Michdad2014 I go to a very competitive high school in Kentucky. I have a 3.7 UW GPA and a 31 ACT. AP Scholar with honor.</p>

<p>@mythbusternolan, Thanks.
BTW, Congrats for your LSA acceptance!</p>

<p>I think that UM will take its share of statistically challenged students as well. By that I mean, students who are NOT outwardly blowing the charts up with stats. I really do believe they look at the individual and see exactly what they have to offer. Yes, I believe a majority are shining stars…but I also think they give a few diamonds in the rough a nod as well…God I pray they do!</p>

<p>Got an email back from an admissions officer she said they will have decisions by next week does that mean tomorrow?</p>

<p>^^^^^^
Shouldn’t you have asked her? :slight_smile: </p>

<p>i really don’t want to wait another week…please be this week!</p>

<p>I am guessing it will be either today or tomorrow. …</p>
