just got accepted as a current freshman transfer (will be a sophomore) into the school of kinesiology as of march 9th!
@brookeeeeharrison Do you mind telling us your stats?
stats:
4.0 college GPA unweighted
im in the honors college at texas christian university and i also run division one track and cross country for them
im involved in several research projects at tcu, i volunteer with service dogs, and i am a published author. i also ran two marathons in high school.
my high school GPA was a 3.4 something unweighted and was like a 3.8ish weighted im pretty sure? i was deferred then rejected my senior year of high school.
i took 31 hours between fall 2019 and spring 2020 all of which transfer over to umich (i spoke with laâjoya orr before selecting my classes to make sure of this) and got aâs in all of my courses.
iâm a member of NHS and also made the deanâs list this past fall - i submitted my application jan 31 and umich didnât receive my college transcripts until february 7th so if you submitted late donât worry about it.
my specific major is exercise science - let me know if you need anything else!
i also got a 30 on my ACT and im an OOS resident from MA
@brookeeeeharrison Thank you, and congrats on your acceptance !
hey guys! once admitted are we automatically considered for scholarships if we submitted FASFA? i canât update a scholarship profile on wolverine access since we donât have access to that as transfer applicants
Hello guys.
After nearly 19 months of applying and waiting for decisions, being deferred as a senior and further waitlisted, I have finally been acceptedâŠ
Stats:
High school GPA: 3.99 weighted, ~3.8 Weighted
9 AP classes
College GPA: 3.86
Credits at my prior university: 58 (includes AP, without AP itâs 18 lol)
Prior university was a small private university in Illinois.
Extracurriculars were pretty sparse, I just had some volunteer work, actual work, and some hobbies like bonsai and history.
Counselor: Megan Taylor
Applied on 1/31/20
It is odd. I spent so long and hard trying to get in, and once I did I didnât even feel much⊠Is there something wrong with me?
Just got admitted for UM as sociology major. I was deferred and rejected two years ago in high school, since my HS GPA and SAT/ACT was really bad (way below their average).
I applied with 3.85 GPA and just got admitted today!! UM does in fact review applications holistically, and thereâs definitely hope to get in!!!
Good luck to those that are still waiting!!
@Crivelo Thatâs also me, my heart was beating so quickly but after I see my acceptance I donât feel as much as I supposed to. lol
