There's now a google group going on for the waitlisters. It's what we've all been suspecting - there were a lot of sleepers who hadn't posted on PG, but the waitlist thread is well and truly alive.

Congrats neosumit! I applied in R1 too and just got waitlisted. All you puys who applied in R1 and didn't receive any notification at the time should check Wolverine access to see whether you've been waitlisted now.

RSB-UMCU International Student Loan Program 3 is a limited two-year program, offered to students admitted to UofM in Fall 2011 or Winter 2012. They have not even negotiated a Program 4 contract as yet. So it is all very dicey.
I am planning to apply in R2. But without clarity on funding optio...

If they have something for 2011, they must have it for 2012 as well. As far as I am concerned, I have not received the interview call. So no point thinking of funding options !

Does anyone know about the loan program for international students which doesn't require a US based cosigner?
Ross had such a program for the students entering the school in 2011. Nothing about the batch entering in 2012 is mentioned though.
What sort of funding options are you puys lookin...

Don't we have to enter awards and activities for Ross, as the application portal says "This page is only required for BBA, Master of Accounting and Master of Supply Chain applicants".

Nice to see this thread for Ross 2012 applicants, I am also aiming at the R1 deadline. Recommenders are still working upon their letters and am working on my essays.. hopefully everything shapes up in time.

gullubadshah

21 Sep '11

I think the hard copies need to be produced only when you are admitted ... Scans should be fine for application.
Just my opinion though ... havent had reasons to think otherwise while filling in the application form.
Neone having troubles with recommendations ?

Hey adi,
