<p>Based on your stats and resume, I think your chances of acceptance into Ross are excellent. I’m assuming your uw GPA is on a scale of 4-- is that correct? Michigan likes to use the uw GPA and then looks at your course rigor. Make sure you include “AP Scholar With Distinction” as one of your awards. Good luck!</p>

5

<p>Yes I forgot, I did include that honor and I have a rigorous course schedule. I took 5 APs last year, 2 the year before and 1 my freshman year. This year I am taking 4. Also I have all honors classes depute of course the required Art class and PE credit and what not. Thanks!</p>

6

<p>and yes the scale is a 4.0</p>

<p>Are you applying Early Action? Are your folks sure they want to spend that kind of loot for OOS tuition?? It’s a great school!!!</p>

8

<p>Yes I’m applying EA. The money situation were gonna tackle when it comes to us. Im willing to take out a loan and I feel like despite the terrible fin aid I might at least get some. Actually, on that I have a question. The supplement asks for your family’s gross 2011 income, but it’s optional. Should I report it, because i would be in the $0-$25,000 range and I know that Mich is accepting more OOS this year because they want more money through tuition prices. The income for 2011 is deceiving of my actual financial situation, but it allows them to see my financial situation I really don’t want them to weigh that in my application, would it be bad if I left it blank?</p>

<p>You’re a match for LSA EA, but Ross is a crapshoot (as it is for everyone because of the tiny number of people they take).</p>

<p>Thanks I just submitted everything today…Hope you guys are right</p>
