This is actually an interesting question because my freshman year and this year there have been polar vortexes but my sophomore and junior years it was uncharacteristically warm. I'm from NY so it's not like I'd ever experienced prolonged periods of warm or cold so I think I'm a decent measurement.

Honestly in the two years that it's been particularly cold I find that your get used to it pretty quickly. I've gotten to the point where it can be like 15-20 degrees out and I make the 5-10 minute walk to the gym wearing shorts. In general when it gets really cold (like single digits) that's when I wear long underwear and a trapper hat and I'm usually good.

As a Georgian, this sounds terrifying to me.

Exactly, how else are they supposed to know you REALLY wanna go there??

(also if it wasn't clear from this statement and as I've mentioned ITT a few times I'm currently a UG in Ann Arbor so if anybody has any questions about the town or the University as a whole I'm always down to talk Michigan. Also the law quad had been under construction for months and it's really taking away from the aesthetic)

On a scale of 1-10 how cold would you say you are on a regular basis?

edit: 10 is really cold

It appears I'm right there with you. Farewell, Michigan applicants thread. I'll see some of y'all elsewhere, I'm sure.

No, I sort of thought I was getting Dinged after not getting It. It seemed as if they were telling strong applicants that they are interested In not to get worried yet.

Same deal here. I applied in November, so I wasn't sure if It was an impending ding or just that I wasn't waiting long enough to get a Sit Tight.

Same. Fun times y’all. Crazy amount of debt here we come.

I know it seems a little petty because omg I’m truly so grateful to have just gotten in, it’s just rough when based on past data you thought you were going to get a scholarship and now it’s nothing.

Maybe you can both negotiate some $! Don’t give up on money just yet.
