Hi Everyone and thanks for the insightful thread,
I'm planning to apply to Ross in R1

Any idea when I can start my application in the portal? I logged in, but can't select FTMBA (No Terms Available)

Also how can I submit a test waiver? is it part of the application pack (like Johnson)? or I have to submit it in a separate link?

Same here, the portal is not allowing access to the application yet. However, the essay prompts are out and you can work on those until the applications go live.

Regarding waivers, check the 'Demonstrate Your Academic Readiness' section on the application requirements page on the website.
