<p>Hey guys!</p>
<p>I'm very interested in transferring to UMich for the Fall of 2012. I currently live in North Carolina where I attend a community college. Just some stats about me.</p>
<p>Intended Year of Transfer: Fall 2012 - As a Junior
Age: 19
Race (if it matters): African American/White
High School GPA: Low, did not apply myself in high school.
Community College GPA: 3.912 for 37 credits and will go up after my summer courses (Have All A's right now)
Intended Major Upon Transferring: Business
College Extracurriculars: Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society of the Two-Year College Recording Secretary (Officer position), Phi Beta Lambda Secretary (Officer position) Wake Technical Community College Honors Program Member (I can take college courses with Honors distinction on transcript)
High School Extracurriculars (if they matter): Wrestling and Football
Out of School Extracurriculars: Volunteer work at Local Food Bank
Did not take SAT/ACT because I plan on transferring with my Associate's Degree.</p>
<p>I'm unfamiliar with the out of state cap in Michigan as I've only been there once, but I am very interested in transferring to Ross. </p>
<p>If anyone has any advice/possible chances for an out of state student to increase my chances of getting in, it would be greatly appreciated! :)</p>
<p>It’s very difficult to transfer to Ross from another university. Several years ago each class would contain about 20% transfers but I believe now it is less than 5%. You may want to contact an admissions counselor for more accurate information. It sounds like the community college route is working out well for you because you are doing very well there.</p>

More like 1% (<a href=“http://www.bus.umich.edu/admissions/bba/BBA%20Class%20Profiles%202010.pdf[/url]”>http://www.bus.umich.edu/admissions/bba/BBA%20Class%20Profiles%202010.pdf</a>) and it has been 4% or less for the past few years.</p>
<p>Ross is a 3-year program so you will have to spend an extra year even if you get in. On the other hand, you do have a fair chance of being admitted to Michigan in other fields.</p>
<p>I would transfer to the LSA School and do coursework there for a semester or two before you apply to Ross – to show them that you have done stuff at Michigan. However, since your intended semester as a transfer is in the Fall as a junior, it will be very difficult.</p>
<p>Don’t let that discourage you though!</p>
<p>It is definitely not worth starting Ross after three years. At that point you are much better off graduating in something else and getting a MBA afterwards. It’s questionable whether it would make sense to spend the extra year to get the BBA.</p>
<p>His post clearly mentioned he wanted to attend Ross during his junior year, which means applying during sophmore year. Obviously nobody would expect someone to spend 2 extra years in college for the sake of a BBA degree, and actually, they most likely wouldn’t accept you if you’re applying as a junior. Spending an extra year is questionable, but depends on how you look at it.</p>
