I am based in Asia. Do we expect to have a call tonight? or tomorrow morning?

I have looked at the thread history (p17-20), when the R1 admit calls went, they called Asia in the evening Asia time. I suppose, they will call by time zones today, Asia applicants will be probably one of the first to know

Wow that is some dedication. When did they call Germany??? sorry but could not stop myself from asking

In Ross, based in Long Island (NY, GC holder). Got called at 9:00 am sharp, today. (waited for 2 days, and almost gave up)

1. GC holders are considered as international applicants. I asked specifically.
2. They called most people in Asia before me (cuz it's night there).
3. No schorlarship, I guess. I did not ask (too excited from too frustrated).

Did you confirm "2" with them?

I did not confirm anything. When I was on the phone, the person told me she just called China and Asia.
I don't know whether or not she FINISHED calling those regions.
From another forum (chinese), several people in China got called around 7:30 am EST

Congrats to all those admitted so far and good luck to the internationals waiting today!

You should absolutely attend GBR (Go Blue Rendezvous), our admitted students event. If you're already set on coming to Ross, it's a great chance to meet future classmates, scout for housing, enjoy more of A2, and really just build off the momentum of the admissions process. If you're not set on coming to Ross, it might (and should) give you a better sense of the Ross vibe, especially since you and the rest of the prospectives aren't fretting over what to say in an interview, etc.

I wonder if need of a co-signer is the culprit otherwise ross batch had 9% indians. if this is the case, Ross' intl intake is dropping this year.

Good question. They also seem to have forgotten Africa... (seems like i'm the only one here from Africa)

I guess this is to be expected, since they only admit 5+ people from there (i mean, 1% of the class is from Africa).

With the reduction in class size, the 1% is more like 0.7% now..., 3 students? Starting to doubt if they even call admits from Africa? Thought since I'm in the US i could get the call, but it looks like my file is buried somewhere....

Unlikely i will get the call, hoping for an email...
