Calling all Ross 2011 applicants!

This is a question for R1 admits. I have been accepted to the Tauber program and have heard sometimes additional money is offered in the official letter that comes in the binder. I was wondering if this rumor is true. I just got accepted to my #2 choice with a nice fellowship offer, but I am 90% sure the money can't sway me. I am however pretty curious if many people get financial offers outside of the admit call. Thanks.

hi becky. well, if you are in doubt and cant wait until the admit binder reaches you, then contact the member of the adcom who sent you the admit mail and ask them about the scholarship info. in most cases, they will let u know of the amount offered and that should help you.

Thanks TMS2012!
I sent an email last week about the error as well, but still hasn't worked. Guessing IT is probably backed-up. I'll probably give it a few more days and then send a follow-up. Thanks again!

Any round 3s out there? I'm wondering when the interview invites will start coming out....

I'm in a similar position. Got a significant scholarship from a school other than Ross, but haven't heard anything from Ross about scholarship. Any idea when we're supposed to get the admit binders?

I think, if you had gotten any scholarship, the person who called would have mentioned it over the phone. So...

If they forgot to mention it over the phone, it's also in the acceptance email from adcom that they sent out shortly after the phone call.

This is actually not true, hence my question. They have historically notified applicants of additional scholarships via the binder and in no other way. My question was related to how frequent this occurrence is. Thanks for trying and I am sure your answer would typically be accurate.

becky, post it on the google group..you'll know how many of us had this anomaly...as far as i can remember, no one had this case...

I submitted my app for round 3. Haven't heard anything yet, although I think this is around the time when they start the review process for round 3 applicants.

once again, Soojin's blog is the only source of credible information as to when the interview waves will begin....follow that regularly...

Not sure if that post was directed at me, (and if it was it's kind of a snide remark,) but I was referring to the blog. On 2/7/11 she wrote:

"The last of our Round 2 interview invitations were sent out this afternoon. If you did not receive an interview invitation this round, it is possible that you will be invited in Round 3. We will not begin reviewing Round 3 applications until mid-March, and interview invitations will go out after that time."

Since it is now mid-March, I think it's safe to assume that we are approaching the original time frame that she alluded to...

hi doggdetroit.

well, the comment was aimed at you and all the other r3 candidates. No offence though. i know she said mid-march and no specific date. but be posted on that blog and she will update it soon with actual dates....for all the previous rounds, she has been giving up such important pieces of info through the blog, so its expected that for r3, its gonna be the same.

Another question for all of you who have been through the process...

It has come to my attention that one of my transcripts may not be viewable / printable. I submitted an official electronic transcript as a .pdf that apparently is only accesible to me. I became aware of this as l was submitting an app to another school, and because this school allows you to preview your "printed" application including all of your attachments, (unlike Ross,) I was able to catch and fix the error.

Should I contact the admissions team at Ross to let them know, and possibly send them a non corrupted file, or should I just wait until they start the review process with the hope that they contact me saying that they can't view the file and to send another copy?

I would suggest that you email the non-corrputed version along with an explanation and ask them to add it to your file.

of you could call up admissions first and ask them how to proceed with this..

My Financial Aid Award Summary is populated with actual award descriptions and numbers in Wolverine Access....so that is new.

If you got any grants or scholarships, does it show up in your "Elgibility Summary" in the Financial Aid section?

I got my numbers loaded today as well. But I guess we only see first year?

A round three applicant here. How do I check my status update. The review activity page doesnt show status of the application
