Calling all Michigan (Ross) Fall 2009 Applicants! : MBA Archive

Yahsek · 2008-07-17T03:38:50-07:00

I looked around and was a bit surprised that no one had made a Michigan thread for 2009 yet. So without further ado, here it is. Who else is considering the Maize and Blue for 2009? Count me in for Round 1! Here are a few Michigan (Ross) related links. Feel free to post any other links that you'd like to see added and I'll try my best to update in a timely manner.

Yes I am from IT and software. But I have a few stories to talk about - Proj Managment, a lot of customer interfacing, international experience, retail background.
But again, this is just an intw invite. Too early to say anything.

refurb, aakashganga, terp, ryguy904 - you will get those emails soon !

That sounds very much like my story. :-)

Lets wait and see.

I did the dreaded, re-read off app, well I just skimmed it. I am still pleased with it and I feel I put my best self forward so there was nothing more I could have done. Gives me SOME confidence in receiving an invite now:)

Hey Terp

Don't loose heart my friend. You will definitely get an interview call. I am also in the same boat but I am very confident that its just a matter of time before we start getting another round of calls. Its still more than a month to go, so just relax and soak with the tide of time.

What would you like : To get an interview call in the first day and not making it finally OR receiving an interview call on the final deadline and making it eventually :-)

From this old link for R1 stats:

https://media.www.themsj.com/media/stora ... 3922.shtml

65% get interviews, of those 50% are accepted

For those that are still worrying--don't worry! There will be more "bursts" of interview invites. I don't have one yet, but I definitely have not lost hope!

It says 289/869 admitted in R1. Ross' class size is around 410 which means they should give out around 800 admits.
The article says the school expects 2000 apps in R2. 510/2000 in R2 which is ~25% as opposed to ~33% in R1.

R1 does look like a better option!

Just got an email invite to Super Interview Saturday on Dec 6th! Anyone else get this? How does this compare to standard interviews? (Better or worse since they are trying to do multiple in one day)
