Unfortunately, that does not add up to the 23% acceptance rate.

I am assuming 50% get interviewed as stated in Soo Jin's blog and to add to 23% overall acceptance rate, those getting admitted should be 46% of those interviewed. Thoughts?

the 23% includes waitlist. His analysis is pretty good, although he should mention that 36% acceptance with another 18% Waitlist.

Also it varies alot per round I believe, since Ross recieved 60% of it's apps in R2 (From Soojin's blog) its hard to tell what really happens per round.

I did street parking. Lots of quarters. But it was fairly easy to find a spot nearby.

stayed at the bell tower, which was not too expensive ($200ish) and left my car with them all day. It was about a 10 min walk across central campus to Ross.

There is actually a parking structure like 3 blocks from the Ross building. it's not campus owned. it's part of the city. Let me know if you need more details than that.

Also parking tickets in Ann Arbor are dirt cheap. $25 bucks for the day for some offenses, $10 for others. And you pay online with two clicks. So don't worry if you're short on time with nowhere to go.

I parked in front of the campus coz I was runnign late. its easy to get the street parking right in front of the school building. and its pretty cheap too .. like 1$ per 50 mins. But make sure you have enought quaters/ dollar coins. Also the limit is 4 hrs so you may have to come back to pump the metter.. like i said it is right in front of the building so recharging the metter is no big deal.

Yea, turns out that I forgot to feed the parking meter when I went in for my interview. One-and-a-half hours later, still no ticket. I then fed the meter for 3 hours.

Haha, nah, I didn't even realize it until after the interview. Sometimes it's good to be scatterbrained!

So when do you all think Ross will start releasing decisions? Soojin's blog said that they'll be done with interviews by 2/26, so I'm thinking sometime after that. Maybe beginning of March?

Soojin said in her blog that they'll be trying to get decisions out before the deadline this time, because they have planned admit events in mid/late-March.
