@elc2435 I’m wondering the same thing. We should probably just assume 17th
@guitar321 I can confirm what @UMichigan2016 said. They said so in my deferral letter, and my college counselor heard the same thing from a Michigan admissions officer.
Whoa if they got over 60k applicants that means their acceptance rate this year will be so low… @elc2435
How many got accepted so far, and how many more will they accept. Omg, this isnt a good sign.
Hey guys,
So I got accepted in March and second semester is almost half-way finished. I was just wondering, how many Bs I’m allowed to get before the admissions people seriously start considering to revoke my admissions? If I don’t try at all, I think the most B’s I will get is 4. My GPAs around a 3.7 something, but I got a 4.0 first semester of senior year if any of this info could help.
@EZMoney123 They rarely, if ever, revoke admission. Technically, they have grounds to if you get three C’s or any D’s or E’s.
@sadovaya hi! calm dowwwwnnnnn! I never lambasted UMich. I was talking about my high school quota (umich accepts very few students - it’s 4 or less every year. (Let’s just say my HS is not a feeder school) and the UC schools will not stop offering Regents and alumni scholarships. There are other scholarships for oos students who are in financial need. Hardly any oos students received FAA this year. And FYI, I never said anything about this and that was not my point. I had nothing bad to say. All I said was have a backup in your mind. And Michigan does not give a lot of $ to oos either. They don’t have to. Nether do the UC schools. If they accept oos students, they will come. Good luck to you.
is it safe to say that if you haven’t heard back yet, you’re most likely rejected? slowly losing all hope in my chances at Michigan since so many kids have already heard back 
Don’t loose hope. Not yet. If you have not heard back yet then you have no way of knowing what the outcome will be. It’s not over till it’s over. Just keeps your hopes up and be positive. People can still get accepted.
@Changa4220 Regardless of UC policy, the UC schools are exploring ways to fund financial aid for oos students, especially UCLA and Berkeley. Unlike Michigan, the UC system (California population) is not lacking in the number of in-state applicants. California residents do not want oos students. The UC schools are looking for ways to keep socio-economic and geographical diversity. Let’s face it, Michigan and the UC’s are the most expensive state schools for oos students. UM is looking for ways to increase FA for oos students, too. Oos students absolutely apply for financial aid and turn away from Michigan and the UC schools every year because other schools offer them more money. If an oos student needed FA, why would would they not apply for FA??? That is ridiculous! They submit the FAFSA to Michigan and they get nothing, Michigan State is much more generous. And, UM doesn’t need to award FA because they have enough rich oos kids who do not need FA. In regards to this new California ruling, there is a big fear for the UC’s because they want to maintain the same diversity that they have always had. That can’t happen if they only accept rich kids. It will be interesting to see what the UC flagship schools do.
Has anyone OOS received a merit scholarship yet? And if yes, can you list the amount and major/college?
On another thread in this forum there are several oos students who said they got full coa met. Tappan Scholarship, grants, and loans.
Last fall my S and I listened to the presentation during a UC Berk tour. They flat out stated that no FA was available for OOS students. We got up and left to tourist before going on the Stanford tour the next day. We are from Michigan and find it disturbing that UM gives more generous aid to OOS students than ISS. He received an FA award with loans, work study and no scholarship that still requires us to pay 15K a year with instate tuition. He did get accepted to UM Honors LSA, rejected to Stanford/MIT.
@ohio101 I am OOS and received a merit scholarship - not sure what the amount is. I was notified of it through an Amaizin’ Blue Preview email. Apparently only big scholarship winners are invited to that so its maybe around the value of $20k and above. My school is STAMPS College of Art and Design
Anyone hear from LSA Honors if you applied by 2/24?
@tbhbulls I haven’t. I think we’ll hear back on Thursday.
@Skigropple
Why are you thinking that OOS students get “more generous aid”? That’s not the case. For in-staters, full need is met based on what the university determines is the family’s need. For OOS students, they get FA, but the university does not promise to meet full need.
You always have the option of appealing if you think the FA office did not take your full financial situation into account. FWIW, I think $15k/year is a great bargain!
@brantly @Skigropple Honestly, it’s a blessing to get such cheap in-state tuition in the first place at a school like UMich
I would guess that OOS alumni are also a significant source of support for the University.
@brantly can you post the link? There are a lot of UM threads
