Calling all Michigan Ross Applicants: 2025 Intake Class of 2027

@GJhay, are you an R2 interviewee?

maybe. We are just overthinking things

yes

An unrelated query - for a career in finance, is Ross better than Tuck?

Yes can be due to different preferences on marketing mails from b schools. Lets wait only.

Are the calls today for international students and tomorrow domestic?

Pretty much same. In the sense, not what the school is typically known for. But those who want finance/ib get enough slots at banks. Tuck likely a bigger brand

Last year it was all random.

Ross has Fast Track in Finance option, which on paper, should help you get internships.
However, Tuck seems to have a stronger network in NYC.

Please reach out to current 1Y and 2Y students with similar background to you to understand better. Or alumni who went into finance in last two years. There could be nuances that you may not find on internet forums. For e.g. As per 2024 Employment report, Kellogg had 92% employment in 3 months, which I thought was great, considering the market. But a friend of mine, an international student, who wanted consulting, could not get any offer, but had to settle for an Indian tech startup. You won't get such information, whether the students got desired job or they settled for desperate options, from the employment reports.

In the email Ross has mentioned -
If you're admitted, the admissions team will try to reach you by phone. We will call all admits on Wednesday, March 12th and Thursday, March 13th.

However, on its blog Ross has written -
Round 2 admit calls are around the corner. Starting on Tuesday, March 11, and continuing through Thursday, March 13, we’re thrilled to celebrate with our newest admits.


Both are contradicting each other in terms of date when admits start rolling. Is it 11th or 12th? Surely, they are talking in terms of Easter Time right?

Also, last year the deadline for results, as mentioned on the website was 15 March and the first results started reporting on 12th March evening ET onwards (it was 9:30 pm ET).
This year, the deadline date as mentioned on the website is 14 March. So maybe the results will start from tonight (Eastern Time)

I think March 11th (late evening) will be the date for zoom call invitation sent to international applicants and the calls will be conducted during March 12th & 13th.

Which zoom call invitation?

Also I don’t think getting an email is indicative of an admit. I got notification emails from schools related to admissions decisions in R1 only to get waitlisted there. There is no reason for a school to insinuate a decision so subtly and let people decipher their code on online forums. They can just straight away tell you once they have your decision - which they will. You can even get a notification on portal and not get its corresponding email until much later. Such technical issues don’t decide whether someone is admitted or not.

Ross has probably the worst application portal. So many people didn’t even receive submitted application mail. So yea, don’t read too much into it

the absolute WORST. As compared to its competitor, Darden blows it out of the water.

I didn't understand the whole point of the AMP portal for scheduling interviews. That was quite pointless.

I just got the mail about to access decision again. Who else got it twice ?
