Congrats PatelM. from admission411, seems like some applicants from US has already been admitted.
i am an international applicant, i am still keeping my fingers crossed!!

hi lepium,

I called up the admission director for my phone interview. He told me the interview is only going to take about 15 mins and 15 more mins for me to ask questions. The questions he asked are from my essays, long term and short term goal. Why Ross? What makes me different from other students....and then he asked me if i had any questions for him....

my profile :
GMAT 680
work ex : 5 years in semicon industry
comm service and leadership : good list of comm service, and lead a few projs
TOEFL : 113/120
-fluent in 3 languages, based in Malaysia but worked in US for 3 years. also worked in Philipines


again, good luck everyone!

Admit here to Ross as well. My interview was a phone interview with a 2nd year student, didn't think it went off well, but managed to get in with a scholarship to boot! Good luck to the others still waiting!

This is awesome. Front page has been updated to reflect the admits. GMATClub has killed at Ross so far. Let's hope results continue to be as positive for R2. :-D

Anyone got an R2 interview yet... anyone know when these might be coming around? Decision is March 15th... So I would think all this has to happen rather quick.

gopher and batchgmat - congrats! and well done on the scholarships. not too shabby at all.

good attitude, fluff. and, given that i heard at 8:30 pm, i wouldn't rule out getting a call outside of normal business hours.

Who here did a campus visit before applying? I never got around to it and I'm not sure how much it will hurt my chances.

I visited for about 3 years...while I studied law. I lived in the law quad, which is right across the street from the business school. I also took a class at the business school while I was there. I had some great stories to tell and good connections with Michigan. I have no idea how much that will help, if at all.

I think knowing the school helps you convince adcoms that you are committed to the school. You know the school, the city, the campus, etc. and you will therefore make a much more informed decision when choosing. You'll need to complement knowledge with commitment to the school, though.

If you've studied with some faculty or know about some special projects or events, you can use the info on the Why School section.

Hope it helps. L.
