My D22 was invited to LSA. I cannot remember if D19 was invited or not; but did apply, and was not accepted. (which was totally fine btw).
Same question. Not sure if should apply to LSA meritscholarships while awaiting Ross. Does Ross have separate scholarships for merit? Or is Ross considered LSA since if you put LSA as your preferred admit school! Too confusing!

Any recommendations for a good place to stay when visiting campus for a Campus day ?

If you can afford it, then stay at the Graduate. Great location near campus. Also, I like the Downtown Residence Inn. Itās also close to campus, but itās also just a couple blocks away from the newer YMCA. Otherwise, thereās a whole bunch of hotels near the Briarwood Mall, which is about 3 miles from campus, but you can take a bus right down S. State Street to campus.

We stayed at the Residence Inn downtown. Nice location and newer hotel. We still drove to the campus parking garage the day of the visit, but we were able to walk to dinner downtown.

Ann Arbor B&B is alright if you want to stay close to Rackham but its a bit dated even though the breakfast makes up for it. The inn also has student employees if you want to chat with someone. The Hampton Inn is pretty good with multiple options.

Not sure what the Michigan Leagueās status is during COVID, which is kind of like a mini-union with hotel-type rooms, and you will be smack dab in the middle of campus there.

If you want B&Bās then, I think the Burnt Toast Inn is excellent, but Iām personally not a fan of the B&B concept nor of their breakfasts, although Iām different.

Just to clarify, youāre saying thereās waves coming for postponed candidates? For example, if you were LSA but deferred EA, you may hear this month? I ask because that is what I recall happening with my oldest, deferred EA but accepted in February. However, two people in the office of undergraduate admissions told me there are no waves, itās all in April, which just didnāt sound right 
First, Iām ājust a guy.ā Iām not in admissions nor connected to the University in any way, other than paying my Dās tuition to the University. Although Iām done there. 
But, Iād be VERY surprised that there wouldnāt be at least one, maybe two, waves for RD applicants (including EA deferred), before April. But Iām speculating based on historical info.
Is there a new way of doing things? Could be, absolutely. But for example, the UCās here in CA are all released before 4/1. Ivy Day is usually pre-4/1, except for last year. Would they wait this year until after the UCās and Ivy Day, assuming theyāre all pre-4/1? 
If thatās the case, then that stinks. The pandemic has certainly changed the way to do things.

Their website states:
Final decisions will be released by early April 2022
The āfinal decisionsā wording leads me to believe there are going to be multiple waves with the last one in early April. Otherwise, why say āfinalā?

Great idea. Rooms were cheaper than Graduate or Residence Inn.

According to a conversation @UMich23Mom had with the admissions office, there are no waves until April, which would be a huge departure from the past, like every year in the past.
āFinal decisionsā seems like a misnomer to me, since there are always applicants waitlisted who are waiting for their āfinalā decisions. But in the past the 3rd wave of decisions has been mid-April.
You will exchange luxury for location, but to be in the heart of Ann Arbor is worth it, I think.
Have her check out the Entrepreneurship minor at Michigan and wonder if this is the same. My son did it and was amazing. Real projects with real companies, solving a problem and all taught by real live CEOs. He really enjoyed it and had to do a capstone project also.
Once you find out I would love to hear your thoughts about it if you want to PM me. I have looked some of this over prior.

@sushiritto I completely agree with all your messages based on experience and research that there would be waves before April. Just in the case there are no waves for whatever reason, and all the decisions are coming in April, how will Ross evaluate and decide an application. So if there are no waves, then all decisions have to come in very early April and then all admitted kids who want to get into Ross get evaluated by Ross and notified by the final 3rd Ross wave on 4/15. Seems tight plus Ross may just have a few seats left to fill.
