UMich Ann Arbor Early Action for Fall 2022 Admission

Nada. No notification is given. Just keep checking them portals. As I said back in November, Michigan’s admissions process requires patience.

Check here of course.

She is smart. My kids didn’t either. They were too busy and said, when we get a notification we will check. Remember, it’s the senior year. I think I stressed out my kids. Don’t do that…

As an example of not needing Ross business school to go into business.

Steve Ross whose name the school is after failed admission to University of Michigan. He transferred as a junior and graduated in accounting. He’s now worth like 7.8 billion. Again, Ross is great but you don’t need it to go into business at Michigan…

Accounting falls under the Ross School of Business — it’s not part of any other school at Michigan and is part of business schools everywhere — and Steven Ross graduated from Michigan.

I totally agree that no one needs a business major to end up in business, but your example makes the case for the opposite.

Well I screwed up :rofl:. Yes he did graduate from Michigan… That’s why I said he transfered as a junior… Why didn’t I know accounting was part of Ross :flushed:… OK but lots of people graduate without Ross and go into business very successfully.

I will crawl under a rock now… :rock:

We all have our moments, lol!

I agree totally with your premise…there are many paths into the business world. I am guessing that Ross students have an easier time because of internship and job opportunities specific to Ross students, but that’s more of a career center advantage than an educational/skill advantage.

Depends on what we mean by the “business world”. If its building a business, you don’t really need Ross or any other business school or even any other school. Mostly, business schools are great at serving the business ecosystem - investment banking, management consulting, venture capital etc. In general, unless its a highly technical career or a professional career like medicine you really don’t need to get a specific type of education.

Lol… But there are plenty of those same opportunities to non Ross kids also. My son didn’t probably as much or more business stuff on campus and he was in engineering.

These are just a few things he did and got $15,000 from Badger and optimize with a start up mentor for a year. The ARI org was self made with BTW a Ross student and this just bloomed. He had the conference for 3 years and weekly lectures and projects.

My point is this is just a few things. There are many, many clubs to join and do some amazing things. Problem is with Ross some kids are locked out of some elite clubs and opportunities. Not sure if they learn the club handshake :wink:

Many of my kids friends are at Amazon, Google, Microsoft etc without Ross. And many even better companies…

Maybe that’s why the nickname “Ross-holes.”:rofl:

Yep. There was some memo that went out that they were trying to curb that culture like 2 years ago. Not sure how successful they are. But… As an aside… At Michigan you can get interview clothes for free, tailored to you. It’s on the website somewhere and was very impressed by that…

OK maybe not tailored but free… Lol. Still think it’s an awesome program Clothes Closet | University Career Center

OK way off topic now :sweat_smile:

Wow. Sounds very strong. All will work out.

Sadly, “ SAT wasn’t available, kept getting canceled” - translates to 1050.

How do you figure that out.

This kid was already accepted I think.

yes she’s accepted.

Sorry, got chats mixed up. Well done.

So the theory is that no standardized tests is very weak and hard to overcome.

But AP tests submitted overcomes this.

She has 8 APs in total - or 12?
