Email from Ross to the happy guys that could see the link:

Ross Admissions recently sent all of its Round 2 applicants an email detailing how candidates can access their admissions decision on March 8th. It has come to our attention that a system error allowed you and a very small number of other candidates to view preliminary admissions decisions. This was inadvertent, and the final admissions decision will be made available on March 8th at 4 PM (EST). We apologize for the confusion, and thank you for your continued interest in the Ross School of Business.

Sincerely,

Well, if I take that at face value, I'm relieved. And now all of us who didn't get that View Decision link can still cross our fingers for a call in the next few days...

Surely
I think the people who saw the link yesterday are the admitted ones.. But hopefully there is also this other subset among the people who did not see the link yesterday who too will get an admit.... Atleast that how I am keeping myself interested in this ensuing discussion

My View Credentials link is missing now too, but I clicked on it yesterday and it listed your GMAT test dates and Transcripts. It's odd some people's links are now gone and others are still there, seems like the glitch is still in effect, unless this has some supposed meaning as well. Haha I'm trying to laugh off all this frenzy as a way to stay sane over the next few days

I agree ... considering the number of people it makes sense that more people will get admitted.

I know people that don't check these boards too often and didn't even register an UMich account yet. We are probably underestimating the size of the glitch population.

Full time: Most of the students I know have job offers already. The only people (that I know of) still looking are those looking at very niche, difficult to break into industries - VC and PE. Offers for consulting are up SIGNIFICANTLY this year at the top firms (for some, more than 100% increase over last year). Banking offers are pretty much the same as last year, as are CPG, Healthcare, etc. Also, most international students that I know already have a job. I would imagine there are more, but I personally know of just one international still looking. And again he is looking at something very specific which does not have a strong history of hiring MBAs - clean energy.

Internships: Internship recruiting has been great so far. Consulting looks to be stronger than last year's internship recruiting. I haven't heard too much about banking, but from what little I gathered, it looks like internationals have fared particularly well in banking this year. One outlier is tech - there are significantly more hi-tech offers this year than last year, and one firm actually increased the size of their interview schedule substantially after candidates applied, and ended up interviewing on campus twice. I'm not so sure about the other sectors. If I hear anything I'll keep you guys posted.

To summarize, from what I can see, it appears that recruiting at Ross is definitely on an upward trend. I am fairly certain that the official stats for 2011 will be better than those for the class of 2010, but how much better? That, I'm not so sure of.

Hope that helps.

I just wanted to echo KingKREEP's comments on recruiting. Most of the 2nd-years I know already have offers. As for internship recruiting, it's been going pretty well, too. I can't speak for others, but personally I have 2 offers, one in energy and one in tech. I think OCD has been doing a great job this year in getting companies to come to campus and with recruiting in general.

As for international students, I think it is tougher for them, since a lot of companies do not hire internationals. Hence the focus on banking and consulting for many international students, since those industries tend to hire internationals. That said, most of the international students I know already have offers, as well.

Also keep in mind that recruiting season isn't over yet. Recruiting in certain industries, like energy, happens later than others. Given the school's focus on renewables, sustainability, non-profit, etc., students interested in those areas are conducting off-campus recruiting, which may happen later than on-campus recruiting.

So overall, my personal perception is that recruiting definitely has improved over the past year. I have to admit that recruiting at b-schools in general is a pretty grueling process, but the results make it worthwhile.

On the flipside, if you look at R1 and past years' threads, and the volume of people who report admits right away, we're not even close to that.

One way or another, we'll all make it through the next 5 days, and will know our fates by then. In the meantime, I'm having wine tonight :)
