There is a facebook group for people joining this fall. "University of Michigan fall 2011"

No, not yet. I am in their waiting list. They haven't yet updated me on my final status.

Thanks nursewretched and timuralp!!

Thanks TransnationalHistory and newms! I was not aware of the rule which stated that one needs to inspect in person the room/house! Maybe I would look out for some seniors from my school and stay with them for couple of weeks and then lease a room. Also I asked about weather because I like running/jogging a lot. I wish to continue that when I join the university. Offcourse one can do indoor in air conditioners but outdoor has its taste. I would certainly try out the places you mentioned for food and may be learn a few tricks from home to cook edible things there . Also since I would be a "slave"( phd candidate lol), what are the average expenses/ cost of living there? I wish to be sure that I would manage on my own.

How is the food at AA? I am a vegetarian. Is there enough variety? Also I am coming from a tropical country, how bearable is the cold? Any precautions, I should take before coming there. Also how is the housing option offcampus these days? Should one lease/rent a room near to university or far from it is good too because of shuttle service? I have an admit for fall 11 for University of Michigan.

How is the housing offcampus? Is it advisable to lookout something nearby the campus or the city has a good shuttle service to cater even long distance?

Thanks. I would certainly! You too

Frankly No idea.

ok, it happens. I am doing BE Computer Science. The potential to research is what matters.

I am from Delhi College of Engineering and have few publications. You did bsc physics and msc computers from same place?

I did hear positively from UMich SI but not CS.

Good, even I applied to 7 schools but should have applied to fewer. Good luck to you for other schools. I am sure you would get through OSU and UOV. Btw which school in india?

which other programs have you applied to? And which other admits have you got? I am optimistic but usually 10% of waitlists get converted so not much hopeful.

Hey I got waitlisted. Anybody considering rejecting the offer??

Thank god I see another soul of same kind

Anybody who applied to CMU COS this time? I am getting anxious day-by-day.

hope full

In the result section there is a sole person announcing an admit. Is this it? Has anybody from them? Interviews/Admits ?? Judging by last year, results should have been out by now.
