I read in an another thread that it helps to be a Muslim to get admission into this school. Are there too many Muslims in the admissions/interview committee??

 

[iLuvCats2001]

I read in an another thread that it helps to be a Muslim to get admission into this school. Are there too many Muslims in the admissions/interview committee??

idk bout this one!! i think its relative to the population. california schools have more east asians, southern schools have more black students, makes sense that detroit wud have alot of muslims.

i am muslim and was rejected last week

I am familiar with UDM. I don’t think there are many people on the committee that are Muslim or that they have a preference for Muslim students. It has more to do with the area. Dearborn which is right outside of Detroit had the largest population of Muslims in the US.

Wondering this too. Has the weightlist moved at all? Also does anyone know how large Detroit's waitlist usually is?

UDM waitlist is traditionally very large, but moves more than other schools...

 

[lingonberry4]

UDM waitlist is traditionally very large, but moves more than other schools...

I heard this year more people applied does that mean there won't be as much movement?

When did you hear from UDM? Were you on waiting list?

 

[annieee2323]

When did you hear from UDM? Were you on waiting list?

in December and no

 

[snaruka46]

Just a quick question I am on the waiting list, and since it's already mid-February,. Do I still have a chance of getting an acceptance? I am a non-traditional student. Should I start preparing for the next cycle? My stats are 3.72 GPA, 19AA, and 19TS.
