Ross Question

<p>I took a year off and have recently started a new semester in U of M. I'm taking 12 credits this semester to ease myself back into school. When I apply to the B School next semester, will the amount of credits I have for the fall semester affect me negatively? (I'm also working part time for a CPA firm and looking into some EC's).</p>

<p>I think you need 30 between fall and winter..so if you take 18 during winter, you'd be okay..otherwise I'd recommend you take one more class...</p>

<p>Nah you only need 27 credits. Looks like this guy isn't a freshman though. Hope he realizes he would have to start Ross as a soph (translation: an extra year).</p>

<p>To answer the original question though, when most of the other people applying are taking 15-18 credits, it has to affect you negatively. However, I don't think it would be a huge deal considering your circumstances.</p>

<p>My D is a freshman but she is starting Mich with 30 credits b/c of AP classes taken in HS. She is considering dropping a class, which would give her 12 credits this semester. Should she replace the class instead? She killed herself the last two years of HS and would like a transition to college life, especially since she is accross the country from home.</p>

<p>If she is applying to Ross I think the best option would be to add a two or three-credit course she is interested in that doesn't involve a very heavy workload. If not, 12 is fine.</p>
