<p>K so right now I'm going for my associates in accounting at Henry Ford Community College, I have 4 more semesters to go. I have a 3.7 gpa that should only be going up and I would like to eventually get into Ross. However, transferring students only make up 1% of new students for their BBA which means that there's no way in hell they're gonna accept me coming from a community college or even if I do go to U of M Dearborn. What should I do? I would like to go to Ross for my BBA and get an MBA there or maybe from an Ivy school. From what I understand, most people accepted into Ross go to U of M for LSA and then transfer into Ross after their first year... is that even possible for me to do now? Any other suggestions? I tried talking to a counselor at U of M Dearborn and my community college but they're just trying to make me stay at those schools even though I know I can be better off at better schools.</p>
<p>Oh, and in regards to me trying to get into an Ivy with a 3.7 gpa, disregard the gpa, it's low because of some ****ty music classes I took that I didn't do too well in. I destroy business classes lol.</p>
<p>You can transfer to UM, apply that year, then you might be accepted the following year. If you do this, you’ll be at UM for 4 years, which means you’ll have been in college for like 6 years when it’s all said and done.</p>
<p>Yeah I know lol… I was going to school for music for 2 years, now I went through Spring/Summer semesters for accounting and now I plan on doing this… I guess it’ll be worth it though to be able to study at some of the best business schools in the country. Should I even go to school this semester then? Will the credits from a community college transfer to Ross? or will I just be wasting my time?</p>
<p>I’m confident in my ability to get accepted into Ross, it’s just that I need to know what other side **** besides good grades that I need to do.</p>
<p>also, does a possession of marijuana conviction (over 2 years ago) completely screw me over? I know how they do in Ann Arbor with it but is it something frowned upon enough to not give me a chance?</p>
<p>I could probably talk my way out of it… since my son was born my grades have improved dramatically and I’m sure I can convince them that I’m done doin stupid **** for his sake. I mean come on, it’s weed… n a 19 year old, those things are pretty ****in common lol</p>
<p>I can’t believe they’re still arresting people for that though haha</p>
<p>There won’t be a way to talk yourself out of it unless you can throw something together in one of those ‘what personal events have dramatically affected you since you’ve been in school?’ essays.</p>
<p>lol… well I’m gonna go to a walk in appointment with a counselor friday at u of m a so I guess I’ll ask them some questions but if it’s anything like every other counselor i’ve encountered, they’re not gonna be helpful or they’re gonna be clueless</p>
