Thanks GoBruins & Unhedged. That's exactly the type of thing I'm looking for. If anyone else has an opinion, I'd love to hear (see) it.

Coakleym - I have, and had a great time meeting students off-campus. But on-campus seemed different to me. Maybe it was finals, or the weather, or lord knows what. I'm looking forward to the Chicago meet-up so I can get to know some potential classmates!


And all you Round 2ers - don't worry so much. I got in, and I didn't get my invite until almost 7 weeks after I applied. You've got loads of time, and the order you're invited is random.

For admitted students who plan to matriculate, or those who plan to matriculate if admitted, I have a big question: Why Ross? No, seriously, I don't want the answer you gave in your essay or interview. Truly and honestly, why are you planning on attending Ross over other schools? I'd love to hear opinions. PM me if you don't want to put the answer here. Thanks!

Have you visited the campus? I think ross is one of those programs that has more intanglebles. The recruiting is pretty strong for consulting and midwest as a Elite (non-M7) school.



I did visit, and the reason I'm asking is that I didn't... love it. The class I observed was relatively dull and the students seemed uninvolved, everyone was "nice" but no one was particularly forthcoming, and I just really didn't feel like they wanted me there the way I've felt at other schools. Maybe it was a bad day, who knows?

I actually had a similar experience which is part of the reason I was leaning towards Duke. In one class I was in at least two people arrived late and there were people talking during class while the professor was lecturing. I also got a very "young" feel from one group of students I interacted with. On the other hand there were some other students that I thought were very put together and what I'd expect at an MBA program. I came away feeling like I didn't know what I'd end up with. I attended two classes, one kind of turned me off, the other was better but still a little disengaged.

Anyone going to Ann Arbor to interview this Friday? I am arriving Thursday night and will be attending the Ross happy hour with a friend (second year student). I am doing the VIP tour on Friday morning and then my interview after at 11:45 AM. I plan on meeting up with a student ambassador after my interview whom I have been speaking with to hang out and answer some questions about the Zell Institute. My flight leaves Ann Arbor at 7:00 PM so please PM me if you would like to meet up!

I'm not sure if I should be added to the Round 2 or Round 3 list.

I submitted my application January 16th, for round 3, and my second recommendation was received by Ross on the 23rd. On the 25th I received an interview invite with a window of Jan 13th - Feb 12th. I just completed the interview a few minutes ago(28th)

Do people get slid into earlier groups occasionally? My interviewer didn't know for sure but said he was under the impression he was doing group 2 interviews. Thanks for any help.

This is REALLY messed up. If it's happening consistently, I would be pretty disappointed with admissions.

That's RIDICULOUS. Did you interview on campus?

I think I'm gonna do an on-campus interview. Already visited the school last year during the summer, but I didn't get to attend classes, so I'm hoping to do it this time, and it would show adcom my interest, hopefully. Any tips you guys have for an on-campus interview?
