分享一下小米回复的关于Umich的录取条件

楼主是ME的，虽然自知实力不济，但还是想把Umich作为dream school申一把。但楼主在Umich的网站上发现他家对GPA，GRE成绩都有明确规定。楼主有的成绩没有达到他家要求，于是发小米问是不是会严卡这些成绩（如果是的话楼主就打算放弃他家了），小米人很nice，回复如下：

It's good to hear that you're interested in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Michigan!  If you feel that your GRE or GPA is not strong enough, please know that the Graduate Admissions Committee reviews the whole application when considering who to admit to the program.  We are looking for students who are strong in at least three of the four areas below:

Average GPA in the 3.5 or better on a 4.0 scale
GRE scores in the 80-90th percentile (Quantitative and Verbal): Please take the GRE revised General Test. Or if you previously took the GRE General Test, request ETS to send the scores to University code: 1839.
Strong letters of recommendation
Strong Statement of Purpose and Personal Statement (Two separate essays are required).

说明个别成绩不达标还是有希望的。从这几个标准看，貌似他家很注重SOP还有推荐信的分量，而且没有提到任何关于professional experience、publication之类的软件实力，主要就是比硬件，不知是否可以这么理解（当然SOP要写好的话也离不开强大的软实力背景）。给大家分享一下，想申他家的可以参考参考。

问这种问题,小米都会这么回答的:
the Graduate Admissions Committee reviews the whole application

你其他方面背景强的话,果断申

这也不一定的，之前我问过NCSU、BU的ME录取。他们直接告诉我不满足minimum score是不建议申请的。所以我果断放弃这两家了。

80-90的gre verbal ，好恐怖。。gpa不会是标准算法的3.5吧。。本来还打算申一个拼一拼rp的。。

小米这种说法没什么信息量吧，每个学校都是这么看的。很少有学校直接因为某一项卡掉你，我就知道Uarizona会这样

刚从他家网站上转回来，我要打算申cse，结果看到他们的requirements，就直接给跪了。。。
粘贴过来跟大家看一下：
Successful M.S. applicants usually have an undergraduate GPA of at least 3.5/4.0, GRE scores of at least 70% verbal, 90% quantative, and 40% analytical writing, and three strong letters of recommendation. International students should have a TOEFL score of at least 100.
