<p>deferred
</p>
<p>@Fri612 I don’t know how Michigan can honestly just “assume” I’m going to another school. What if it was truly my top choice, and they defer me based on just a silly assumption? By the way, I am seeing all my college results first before I make a decision. I’m not sure if I will choose a top school or not. It depends on fit.</p>

<p>@Localdreamer15 It’s the OOS syndrome man. Being an out of state Indian in California, and still having my stats, I would have almost assumed that I would have a good chance of getting in. Guess not…</p>
<p>Aaaand deferred from LSA OOS. Not surprised, but still disappointed.</p>
<p>And I withdrew my application on Tuesday and still got the email today</p>
<p>How much will it hurt if I choose not to send my fall semester grades?</p>
