inwhatway Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Michigan is my "reach" school. I'm dying for some inside scoop on this year's admissions process. Does anyone have any info?
Supernovasky Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I'm going to laugh pretty hard if UT Austin rejected me and Michigan accepts me. We'll see. Not banking too hard on it.
kbirch Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 I'm going to laugh pretty hard if UT Austin rejected me and Michigan accepts me. We'll see. Not banking too hard on it. At the same time, though, this process is almost maddeningly random. People can definitely be rejected from lower-ranked schools (hah - like UT-Austin could ever be considered a low ranked school!) and accepted to higher ones. The thing that's making me tear my hair out is that there are all these extraneous factors... Obviously, a 4.0 will be more helpful than a 2.5 but I feel like our stats can be so similar but if we're not exactly what a school is looking for, we're out. And that may or may not happen with every school you apply to. !!@#@)(*) Ahhhh.
kbhaven Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Just got accepted to Michigan! Hopefully others hear good news soon as well! Congratulations! If you don't mind, can I ask your area of interests?
sociology27 Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 congrats... was it a standard email or personalized? I thought I had a decent shot here, damnit.
sociologyplease Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Congrats. Ugh this is turning out to be some week for me
Supernovasky Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Well, definitely did not expect Michigan... Congrats to those that got in though!
giacomo Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 has mich finished accepting people? anyone with the scoop?
sociology27 Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Can you guys report what times you got your acceptance emails? Just to know if they went out all in one swap or if there's a possibility it'll extend until tomorrow.
sociology27 Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 I got an email saying I'm on the "very short alternate list" and that I should know one way or the other by early/mid April. Anybody else get waitlisted? Anybody get in and not plan on attending? Any idea what the odds are of getting in off the waitlist? Any info would be much appreciated.
ohhello Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Looks like all the acceptances and wait lists have been sent out. Now we'll have to wait for the wave of rejections next week. Time to consult some chocolate.
sociology27 Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Does someone want to claim the Michigan acceptance on the results survey? Did you get in off the waitlist or is this just a late posting?
SocGen89 Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 I got a rejection e-mail today...a voice cut from a template, sung from the guts of a mass-mail autobot somewhere out in the interweb aether. well said water_rabbit. Got the same email yesterday. Can't say I was surprised, but it was my reach school. Glad I know where I stand so I can go about making the important decisions.
