Transferring to LSA -> Ross

<p>Is this even a possibility? I am currently attending the Dearborn campus. </p>

<p>The upside is that the regional campuses' are given full Michigan Honor Point value; however, the credits transferred are denoted as "Out of Residence". I'm not sure if this would be an issue or not.</p>

<p>Yes, you can either attempt to transfer straight to Ross from Dearborn as an external transfer applicant.</p>

<p>Or, you can transfer to Ann Arbor LSA then to Ross as a regular applicant.</p>

<p>How many credits do you have?</p>

<p>Well, I currently have none - I am a first year student. </p>

<p>I am more a less trying to determine if transferring to LSA will even be worth it. If the credits “earned out of residence” will put me at a severe disadvantage at gaining entrance to Ross, than I might as well forget it.</p>

<p>Credits earned out of residence aren’t discriminated against for admission, though there is a requirement to complete a certain number of credits for admission to Ross.</p>

<p>If you transfer to LSA you must complete 27 credits at UM Ann Arbor before you can be considered for admission to Ross – unless you’re admitted during a winter semester and you apply during the same semester, then you just need to have completed 27 credits in transfer.</p>

<p>Do you know the maximum amount of credits that that will distribute into the Ross BBA program?</p>

<p>And, if I transfer into the LSA during a winter semester, then I can immediately by pass the rigid 27 Ann Arbor credit requirement, and directly apply to Ross?. Is my understanding correct? If so, it doesn’t seem to make much sense.</p>

<p>I appreciate your assistance.</p>

<p>Not off the top of my head.</p>

<p>Yes. It’s structured that way because the application is due in Winter (March). It lets people who transfer in Winter have a chance at a Ross spot without falling behind in their degree program and while still being able to attend UM if they’re rejected from Ross. Spring-Fall transfers can complete the 27 credit requirement before the next application cycle. The special Winter transfers will just have half of the 27. You could do a direct transfer from Dearborn but direct transfers compose 1% of their total admits.</p>
