Accepted to University of Michigan - what were your DC’s stats?

[Anonymous]

If your DC was accepted to the University of Michigan OOS this year, can you list their GPA/test scores and what round they were accepted in? (EA, Deferral turned acceptance, RD, etc.). Thanks!

I think major might matter.

I think the Michigan stats at our private school are equivalent to the kids getting into Ivies. However, the Ivy admits are usually the ones with a big hook and the Michigan admits tend to have high stats and more normal high school ECs (as opposed to the impressive passion project, non-profits, tutoring companies, etc.).

EA for LSA data science, 1550, 3.9/4.4 from a tough private. 9APs by time of application. ECs pretty mid.

Kid had a wide range of academic interests is excited about the different classes offered.

which tough private has a weighted GPA?
The Big3/Maret/Potomac do not. Are there other tough privates around here?

PP. CDS for UMich confirms this btw, i.e., Academic record and GPA are the only two categories checked as "Very important."

Accurate. DC also got into Cornell. Definitely Ivy-caliber.

Major seems to matter big time?
