Anyone knows the timeline for UVA? How likely is it for the in-state students?

According to our private’s college counseling team, they do not expect Michigan WL to move as much/like it has in past years.

I assume this is a troll post as every admissions office implores people not to call to express interest when on the WL.

I don't think they're ever not.. last year it was like 1600 kids


Michigan might not take that many kids this year because part of their class was filled with ED for the first time ever. No one knows what percent-20%? It may be enough that the waitlist numbers drop.


And they accepted a bunch of deferred ED applicants in early January, and I’m guessing yield for that group was quite high.

For example, at our HS, Michigan accepted half the usual number of students, all of whom were ED applicants but only one of whom got in ED. All are attending.

Are universities calling public high schools to offer waitlist spots? Or does this only happen at private HS?
