Got put on waitlist 3/17. I feel like UofM was trolling me when they let me know I got approved for in state tuition on Monday.

Checking in.

If the rest of y'all would go ahead and withdraw so I can become BFFs with Harbaugh, I'd really appreciate it.

Not a fellow waitlister, but am creeping anyway and figured I'd *try* to explain how to create a poll since I know how.

OP, if you go to edit the first post, the option to create a poll is underneath where you type next to the options tab titled "Poll creation." Once you go to that tab, I think it's pretty self-explanatory but if you have any questions, feel free to quote or PM me.

Good luck to everyone ITT that's hoping to wiggle in off of the WL!

Has anyone on the WL tried to schedule a visit? I'm trying to decide if it's worth it or not. Also, I can only visit on April 24, which is a pre-exam study day, so I don't think there are classes.

I'm visiting this week. Admissions office has been really great about it. Schedule through this portal: https://www.law.umich.edu/special/tours ... fault.aspx

You can meet with someone from admissions and get a tour and talk with students (though they may not be too available during study days).
