Thank you for the link newmassdad…very informative and helpful for my D that never made it off the U Chicago waitlist and landed at U Mich.

So far, so good for her there…but she just started. She loved her summer course at U Chicago and the intellectual environment there, and fortunately seems to be finding the same kind of group at Michigan (but I think the school is so big, you’re bound to find others you have common interests with). She’s happy with her professors and because she’s in the RC, she has very small classes. She will also be doing research with a professor as a freshman which she’s really looking forward to.

I think she still wonders how different her experience would be had she gotten off the waitlist at Chicago, but she is determined to make the most out of what U Michigan has to offer and I think from what I see so far, she’ll enjoy her college years there.
