[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I promise this is not a troll post because there's been so much Michigan bashing, but from oos (not Michigan) And this group has more info about Michigan than I've ever seen.
Now that Ross is separate, should LSA be easier to get into?  What do you think Michigan looks at most:  Class rank, grades, SAT, AP scores?  [/quote]

Ross takes applications for freshman now? When I went you applied when you were a sophomore.  There wasn’t a 4-year business program. [/quote]

PP. It has totally changed due to overwhelming demand. And has now morphed to direct admit for freshmen as the main admit method for Ross.

I understand why this took so long to happen.  I just checked the current BBA curriculum. It's very redundant with MBA. Kids just want the big $ jobs that come with BBAs from a good school and the more reliable success of a business school career center.  I still prefer my path of Econ BA and MBA later. Even then I had some redundant classes due to starting a business dual major.  That was a waste.  I stopped the dual major when I became convinced I would eventually get an MBA.

My kid wants to go into Public Policy but we have discussed a top-ranked MBA as an eventual failsafe if his preferred career ends up being unsatisfying or badly underpaid.

In my family, college is a time to follow your heart.  20s post-grad are for deciding what you actually like to do and experimenting. Late 20s is when you have to get serious about goals, finances, family, etc.  I believe an undergrad BBA can teach a person quite a lot.  But I prefer a more traditional undergrad liberal arts education.  It's fair to say that my family strongly values ideas over financial return.[/quote]
