They haven't released the official acceptance stats yet, but they did published enrolled students and application volumes, so some guesswork involved here.

In fall of 2023, there was an acceptance rate of 17.9%, based on 15,722 acceptances and 87,632 applications. (https://obp.umich.edu/wp-content/uploads/pubdata/factsfigures/firstyearsprofile_umaa.pdf)

For fall of 2024, the school announced first year applications rose to 98,310 (https://record.umich.edu/articles/u-m-reports-record-enrollment-for-fall-2024/) and 7,278 first-years enrolled (https://obp.umich.edu/wp-content/uploads/pubdata/factsfigures/enrollment_umaa_2024.pdf).

If we assume last year's yield rate of 47.2%, we can assume approximately 15,420 acceptances were handed out, yielding an acceptance rate of 15.7% this year - quite a feat for Umich!

After reading about their DEI debacle, i will have nothing to do with them. No donations, no support.
