<p>I was admitted to LSA and applied to Ross prefered admission. I received an email earlier this month from Ross saying they were holding my application for further review and would give me a decision by May 1. Well that is only a few days away and the decision from Ross will decide if I go to Michigan or not, so I'm understandably upset with Ross for making me wait until the very last minute.So...</p>
<p>Is anyone in the same situation as me?
Does anyone know when I might hear from Ross?</p>
<p>Any info on the matter is helpful. I’ve grown very impatient over these past few weeks.</p>
<p>I would not expect to get into Ross. They will probably only accept 15% this year and the average SAT/ACT for admitted students with be 2200/33. Those students will also typically have excellent ECs/work experience. </p>
<p>It will be easier getting into Ross once your first year in LSA is over.</p>
<p>yeah I would still choose UMich and get in after next year. Worst case scenario they still have a killer Econ program as well and I’m sure you can take classes in Ross too.</p>
<p>I agree with Patrick Bateman, Umich without Ross is still awesome, you’ll just have to work harder at networking to get interviews.</p>
<p>how hard is it to get into Ross from Engineering?</p>
<p>As hard as it is to get into Ross from LSA?</p>
<p>easier 10char</p>
<p>As hard, but Ross takes into consideration the fact that CoE is tougher with grading. From LSA, a 3.6 GPA is expected if you want a good chance of getting in, while a 3.4 from Engineering is usually sufficient.</p>
<p>If one doesn’t get into Ross as a Sophomore, what are other good options for LSA concentrations - in order to land a corporate or finance job after graduation?</p>
<p>From what I’ve heard, any major is fine as long you have a high GPA, do some networking, and be able to effectively communicate interest.</p>
<p>That being said, getting a good GPA in what most companies think are the more “difficult” majors (math, engineering, highly quantitative sciences) will make you stand our more than say getting a good GPA in Women’s Studies. </p>
<p>Something like Economics is in the middle.</p>
<p>if you have a 3.2 from engineering, i would be shocked if you didn’t get into ross. maybe if you wrote song lyrics in place of your essay…</p>
