debt retirement

Read a random definition: exemplary damages

A quick definition of debt retirement:

Debt retirement refers to the process of paying back money that was borrowed. This can include paying off the original amount borrowed, as well as any interest that has accrued over time. When someone takes out a loan or uses a credit card, they are taking on debt that will need to be retired at some point. Debt retirement can be done in regular installments over time, or in one lump sum payment. It is important to manage debt carefully to avoid financial difficulties in the future.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Debt retirement refers to the repayment of debt.

Debt Security: A debt security is a financial instrument that represents a loan made by an investor to a borrower. Examples of debt securities include bonds, notes, and debentures.

Debt Service: Debt service refers to the funds needed to meet a long-term debt's annual interest expenses, principal payments, and sinking-fund contributions. It also includes payments due on a debt, including interest and principal.

Example: If a company takes out a loan to purchase new equipment, they will need to make regular payments to the lender to retire the debt. These payments will include both interest and principal, and will continue until the entire debt has been repaid.

Explanation: The example illustrates the concept of debt retirement by showing how a company must make regular payments to retire a debt. These payments include both interest and principal, and continue until the entire debt has been repaid.

The "date changes" at Michigan really don't mean anything. We had to do them in undergrad admissions whenever a Georgia applicant picked the country instead of the state, because we'd have to remove the TOEFL requirement and reassign the application from the international application readers.

Classy, does that mean they may look at your application, and that look doesn't necessarily trigger any date change?

@soapy: I don't know for sure about the law school. For undergrad, once the application is complete, it's assigned to a reader the following Monday. If we had to make any changes, it's because a reader saw something that needed to be changed and the application needed to be re-read after that change.

You're welcome. FWIW, I have no idea what's up with the address changes. We didn't have to do any of that, except for the Georgia state vs country kinds of things.

I've heard it theorized that some schools will change the address from "St." --> "Street" as they prepare to send out admissions packets. That's the rumor, anyways.
i think it just indicates a change in status like under review or stages of review
my stanford address went long as soon as it was marked complete lmao

I saw some Reddit adcom say that they can see any time we refresh the status checker; I wonder if it's a red flag if an applicant's checked it like 50 times in a day?

Also, can we send another LoR to a school that we've already applied to?
