Question regarding Ross

<p>I got accepted into LSA on December 15th. Unfortunately, I did not complete the preferred admit portion of the original application. I was really upset but I found out today that the deadline for applying is January 5th. Thus, should I just send an email to the Undergraduate Admissions Office?</p>

<p>What criteria is needed for applying to Ross preferred admit. An essay, etc.?</p>

<p>I figured that if I could email everything to them then I should include all the necessary information that was need for the Ross in the original application.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Hmm. While looking at the Ross pre-admit deadline, I realized that the Jan 5th deadline somehow doesn't make sense. Wouldn't that mean if you applied to LSA/Eng/another college (deadlines are Feb 1st), but pre-admit to ROSS after Jan 5th, you'd be automatically denied?</p>

<p>**** if i get into U MICH too i didnt do the preferred portion either. I thought u can get in if you do well the two years before the ross program begins?</p>

<p>Yes most of the students at ROSS apply during beginning of soph year (50% accept rate, avg GPA 3.5). Only 115ish students get in as pre-admits (and the accept rate will probably be in the 10's this year)</p>

<p>It's a 3-year program, so application is during FRESHMAN year.</p>

<p>How does the Jan. 5th deadline not make sense? It simply means that If you apply to the other Umich schools and preadmit after the Jan 5th deadline, they'll consider you for the school (LSA, eng, etc.) but you'd be automatically denied from Ross.</p>

<p>but we can sitll get in right even if we did not do "ross preferred admit"?</p>

<p>Yes, only 62 of the approx. 360 Ross spots are taken by pre-admits, so the normal way is by applying during your fresman year. Last year, the mean GPA was 3.6, with the middle 80% in the 3.3 to 3.8 range.</p>

<p>Odin, what I'm saying is I think it's kind of odd that all the other schools have deadlines on Feb 1, yet ROSS has it on Jan 5th...which would mean you'd get auto-denied from ROSS if you apply after that</p>
