Anyone here knows the time by which we have to submit the application on the 5th?
I am cutting it close and I would appreciate any guidance on this as I could not find it

Hi all,
Long time lurker applying to R2. Just a quick question: does the application not allow for an alternative transcript? Page 4 (Previous Education) states, "Do not send a transcript or list an institution where you did not earn or will not earn a degree, except in the case where a course(s) was taken to meet a requirement for the program you are applying. (EX: Community or Junior College, or non-degree study or study abroad coursework is not needed)."
I have a bit of a unique situation: I completed my freshman year at one college, then transferred to another college for one semester, decided I had made a mistake and transferred back to my original school. Should I even list the one semester record? Finally, I have taken one Statistics course since graduating; can I list this?
Thanks,

The entrepreneurial route is less popular, but if that's your goal don't be shy about it. There are plenty of folks who want to do consulting so you can actually distinguish yourself more by talking about entrepreneurship.
I've been impressed by how strong the entrepreneurial vibe is in Michigan and there's a decent amount of stuff going on, with Ross students faring very well, particularly in the clean tech start-up space. Michigan as a state is trying to cultivate entrepreneurship. It sponsored the Accelerate Michigan competition and UofM students sweeped the student competition - https://www.acceleratemichigan.org/main. ... &nid=14410. One of the great things about Michigan is that it's interdisciplinary, so these UofM teams are composed of Ross, Erb (Ross & SNRE), and Engineering students.
Another UofM start-up in the news is Bebaring. The founder is a senior and partner is an Erber (on the cover of the UofM alumni mag). The founder, Allen Kim, just won Entrepreneur of the Year.

Ross is also attracting students interested in social enterprise. There's the Social Venture Fund (www.umsocialventure.com), one of the 3 student-run VC funds, that invests in for-profit social enterprises. And there's also a course called Social Venture Creation which launched Get Fresh Detroit, which has been garnering a lot of attention - https://www.getfreshdetroit.com/.
At Ross, there's a group of classes under "Entrepreneurial Studies" and these include New Venture Creation, among others. There's also an interdisciplinary class with the business, engineering, and design schools that's called Integrated Product Development. And there's also a club of course - Entrepreneur and Venture Club.
UofM President Mary Sue Coleman has also stated that entrepreneurship is one of the biggest opportunities for the University, so look for more to come at the university level. She's heading up the National Advisory Council on Innovation and Entrepreneurship - https://www.annarbor.com/business-review ... member-sa/.
There's plenty more to find in Ann Arbor and Detroit (TechArb, SPARK, BizdomU, TechTown, Sakti3, A123, Accio, First Step Fund...) so harness your entrepreneurial spirit and go for it.

Infact I had looked at the Zell-Lurie Institute website before and am very keen on its offerings- but from the admission perspective, wasn't sure if they would like it- I might stick with the "safer" post-graduate professions and then if I get admitted i can always opt for courses from the Institute.
