@Booajo I’m the original poster on this thread. My son was admitted to CSE in November. Similar stats but not NMSF (missed that sucker by one point!) We have not heard about honors or merit. We’re OOS.
He wrote U of M, and the CSE admissions counselor wrote back: “Since you have been admitted, you are now undergoing the review process for both scholarships and honors. While we do notify some students on a rolling basis, the majority of our decisions do not go out until towards the end of our deadlines. If you are admitted to honors, you will be notified by the end of this upcoming January, whereas scholarships can be awarded until the end of this upcoming March.”
So sounds like we may have to wait longer…
