If you are already selected and you have a better option, please decline !!

Echoing what others have said, the e-mail was surprisingly kind for how short it was. Congrats to the acceptances! (2a/0w/7r/2p)

TTPB: No, i'm from california (I had the 3.78GPA and got accepted)

very nice email but the whiplash of the mailchimp monkey winking at the end was the funniest thing i've ever seen

To the University of Michigan poster below, could you please tell if you are an international student?

3.78 GPA, No GRE, Strong LORs and SOP. Got an email saying that I will get an official letter soon.

My app was sloppy so not a surprise. So great to hear about the poster below who got in. Admissions cycle over, goodbye GradCafe!!
