Oh, I didn't actually post on all the schools i'm applying too, I stopped after i realized I was spamming
I hope this is my year! Third time's a charm, right?
I thought I recalled you getting in this year. You must really love your husband lol I would be furious.
I hope I am one of them!
Some people like where they are in life, and that is where my husband is. I am glad that he has found something that he enjoys and makes him happy. Getting off the WL would be a dream come true for me and my family situation. It's getting down to the nitty gritty on time since MSU starts early than the other schools.
I had 500-700 hours, so they certainly don't have a hard cutoff for volunteer hours **though they are a valuable part of your application**. Remember this also includes any volunteering you did in high school, so it certainly can add up if you remember that far back.
Wait, really? You get accept just on your primary+secondary app?Good luck to everyone applying this cycle! It already looks like there's at least a bunch of us in the thread who are matriculating this year, so definitely throw out any questions you might have about applying... otherwise, we'll know much more once we start in about a month.
Just one thing to throw out there if you don't know much about MSU (and seems to confuse some people): they DO NOT do interviews for the vast majority of students. Instead, there is a visit day after you are already accepted.
Yep, really. Primary, secondary (which is relatively thorough), and two LORs! That's it! They say that in-person interviews don't really tell them anything beyond what they can glean from our primary and secondary applications (note: they do interview a few people, but only those they feel they need more information about before making a decision).
They are a public school, and are required to have 90% of their class be in-state. OOS tuition is higher to offset public funded costs maybe or to make sure instate students have a better deal and discourage oos who are not serious about serving Michigan.
