[quote=Anonymous]I guess this could go for any department/school where admissions are limited, but it seems like business schools (and engineering) especially seem to have far higher supply (students wanting to major in that field) than they do demand (# of seats).

We’ve noticed that some schools you are admitted directly as a freshman, while others you take a series of courses and then apply to the business school usually after freshman or sophomore year. Other schools, like UW-Madison, seem to admit a batch as incoming freshman (top applicants) while the others who indicate they want to major in business are admitted to UW-Madison’s school of arts and sciences as “pre-business” and then apply as sophomores.

Is there a preference for which one? Im assuming direct admit is the way to go...but I just want to crowdsource this one. Or...let’s say the kid is direct admitted to a slightly “lesser” program (say UW-Madison) but then isn’t directly admitted to a higher ranked program (say Michigan). What would the preference be there?![/quote]
