Hi all, I will be applying to the University of Michigan and I am hoping to connect with applicants for the upcoming admissions cycle as well as those who were admitted last year. First, a little about myself: I am an in-state student at UM and I will be graduating this year in December. I have several years of volunteer experience at two shelters for homeless youth and limited professional experience as a mental health/rehabilitation program assistant. I have also been involved in research for several years and I am eager to build my knowledge and skill set for evidence-based clinical practice. To past applicants: What was your experience of the application process? What advice do you have for future applicants? What factors do you think were critical to your admissions decision? To current applicants: What is your background in mental health and/or social services? Why are you eager to attend UM? When do you plan on applying? I know it's quite early in the process, but I am eager to learn from others' experiences before submitting my application and beginning the long wait for an admissions decision. Thank you for taking a look at this thread!
