Hello everyone ! I would like to know how I can make the personal statement and the statement of purpose exactly different. The details do quite overlap for me when I read the instructions. Do you have any suggestion? Thank you and I am deeply appreciated. :)

Yes, I think both documents overlap, but I don't think that is a disadvantage, you can provide vital information about your accomplishments in the first one, and use the second one to explain your future goals and particular focus in light of your academic and professional background.

What I am struggling with is the attachment on "Grading and honours system", as I see it I should upload my transcripts here right??

For myself, I explained my undergraduate grading system by my own words. I think UMich should see my transcript already from LSAC, so it doesn't make sense to me to upload it.

Thanks, I'll do it that way.

Guys! I received an admission notification yesterday! No details on financial conditions yet, they will be sending a formal letter with additional info by mid-February.

Does anyone know how long do they take to release results about scholarships and up to what amount financial aid is granted?

No, I applied by the January 31 deadline, I didn't know about an early track application for UMich. Although I received an invitation and fee waiver.

Congratulations!!! It's really fast. Is Michingan your top choice? I hope I can get in too.
