Anyone planning to visit the school?
I plan on applying for the MBA/MA Education dual degree program. I was browsing their site yesterday and it looks like they have campus tours set up for every other Friday. I plan on visiting in the fall though once classes start...can't wait to see Ann Arbor, I've heard good things

Planning on applying R2. Want to visit before I do so though. Thinking about visiting Ross and the Chicago schools at the same time.

The class was interactive.The students are cool and friendly. Could you tell me how much minimum score is required to apply for Ross? Let's pour our ideas and share our thoughts and info regarding Ross in this thread.

I live on the East Coast. Is it worthwhile to fly out to Michigan just to visit Ross?

Good to see the thread going. It seems like most Rossers have switched over to the private Ross Google group so things are a bit quiet around here...happy to answer any questions that I can.

I plan to apply in R1 for an MBA/MS dual degree program with the Erb Institute. I've heard nothing but great things about Ann Arbor and I'm going to try to make it out there for a campus visit sometime this Fall. Does anyone have a general idea of when application deadlines and essays will be announced? Is mid-July a safe guess?
