Last year: Michigan received 84,000 apps, about 55,000 +/- of them during EA. Michigan will accept about 15,000 applicants overall, EA and RD. About 50% of them usually during EA.

So, if 8,000 (50%-ish) are accepted in EA of about 55,000 +/- apps, then a great majority of the EA applicants will be deferred to the RD round(s) in February, March and April.


yes we have heard anecdotally from a consultant w “inside” connection that well over 100k this year - could really impact OOS admit numbers if that is indeed true. Not fun, but good luck all


I believe it. Know tons of kids who applied there. We're stressing here as it is #1 choice right now if DS gets in.


One of our top choices at well. My kid is at Jackson-Reed formerly Wilson and says traditionally students from there do not get in EA but get deferred and do have a decent chance of getting in later. So...we will see.


Colleges take a risk of losing top students when they do this because many kids in this climate do not want to wait until March or April. Do they take any kids Early Action in DC?


Eh, if they have no ED to start with, it means yield is not the most important thing. They're mandated by the state of michigan to have 51% in-state, so they probably need to make sure they don't over-admit out of state. Thus, deferring kids from DMV.

At our school, it seems like admits are legacies who are decently smart and geniuses who don't have the hook to get into ivies.

Anyone heard when University of Michigan EA decisions will drop? They said by the end of January, so any day now, but it would be nice to know something more specific.
