College Waitlists and Case Study: Jack for Michigan Ross

College Bound Mentor

Waitlists are one of the most unpredictable parts of the college application process - and an area we get questions on all the time. In the first half of this episode, you’ll hear the ins and outs of waitlists, including how waitlists work, how schools differ by their waitlists, and how to write a letter of continued interest. In the second half of this episode, you’ll hear our first Case Study: Jack for The University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business. There, you’ll learn the most unique aspects of the Michigan application and how to paint an appealing picture with your extracurricular activities and charity work. Note: starting for 2025, students applying to Ross must apply as a direct admit rather than a preferred admit.
