OT-Early Action decisions are out

Submitted by Judge Smails on January 29th, 2021 at 3:35 PM

Our son got in today.  So much happier for him than I ever was for myself some 30+ years ago...

Best of luck to all those getting their decisions today!

Is this “the” early decision - as in first wave? I thought it used to be around Thanksgiving (c. 2008) and last year it seemed to be a week before Xmas. I’ve had both ends of the M admissions process ...early admission for my son, then excruciating (for my daughter) wait list til almost May. Congratulations to all the new Wolverines!

Does he play DT? Congrats!!!!

Back in my day (LSA Class of '77) I got my application in on the first day (August 1) and thanks to "rolling admissions" received my acceptance letter on October 10th. It made my senior year of high school much more relaxing.

My son got in as well.  He is a transfer so he will spend his next two years in A2.  Very excited for him.  He got accepted out of high school and went a different route and I thought he might regret it.  So glad he got a second chance.

Congratulations from class of ‘59.  I have a question.  In the latest Kappa Sigma magazine they have a list of alums who are members of the NFL Hall of Fame.  Dan Dierdorf is listed as U of Missouri undergrad, yet when I looked him up on google it shows U o Michigan.  Can anyone clear this up?

Fellow Kappa Sig here (class of '91), and congrats and Go Blue to the newly admitted students! 

Your question is actually a Kappa Sigma one, not a Michigan one -- he was not in the fraternity as an undergrad while at Michigan.  He was a special initiate at Missouri during his time with the St. Louis Cardinals.  AEKDB!

Congrats to you and your family.

 

Obviously its up to her but Ive been really pushing my daughter towards attending Michigan. We’ve been working on her interviewing, extra curricular activities, and Admission letter. She would be a great addition to Michigans 2037 freshman class.

My daughter chose to apply to NYU early admission, even though she was just about done with her Michigan application. She got in so no Ann Arbor for us. Congrats to all of you who get to visit regularly. Of course, New York ain't so bad.

Just kidding. Congratulations to him and your family. That is a huge accomplishment!! Let’s hope he shows up on campus more than Bob Shoop...
