| Yes Matt, I am an alumnus.
Deprepn, why should Michigan do anything about those helmets? They are the coolest helmets in all of sport! Go blue baby!!!
Tank, I know this is sort of late (I did not receive a notice in my email that you had asked me that question), but if you are still wondering, Michigan has a very respected school of Public Policy. Definitely one of the top 10 in the nation. |

| Hi Alexandre.
I notice your location is Dubai , United Arab Emirates. Are you the representative of the university over here? I did speak to the representative - although I am not sure if it is you. | |

| Oh good - I didn't catch your name when we did speak so was unsure.
I had some questions , but thought I would bring them up when you hold the meeting for the students from Dubai , going to Michigan.
Any update on that?
You're a very persuasive speaker by the way! The Michigan Stamp all over ! | |

| I try not to be too "persuasive"! Anyway Gomez, if you have any questions, feel free to call me on my cell. I am going to send you a private message with my #.
I am planning the gathering all of Michigan-bound UAE Wolverines sometime in late April. By the way, I am manning a booth at GETEX on April 11-14. You should drop by and say hi...and bring along a bunch of juniors so that I can brainwa...err, I mean, "persuade" them too! Hehe!!!

| I just sent my enrollment deposit to Michigan!! I got waitlisted at Virginia (Mcintire) - but its the Wolverines all the way!
Anyway: -
Im in the process of reading all about the LSA courses. I know the prerequisties for Ross and will defintiely be taking Math 115 , Econ 101 and English (some number:S) .
I would like to know how many credits one is reccomended to take in a semester. Also Ross looks at the amount of courseload taken , and I really wouldn't mind taking a heavy courseload. Coming from Dubai Modern High , we get well trained:P:P. So which courses would you reccomend I take?? I have not studied Accounts at school though.
Also ,I have 4 months now and I do not intend to put it to waste. I plan on getting some work experience(going to have look preety hard in Dubai/Sharjah for jobs for high school students). Do you have any sugesstions on what I should do? A course on Accounting or something?
Also , these Michigan Learning Communites - are they easy to get into? Naturally I will try the LSA Honors Program , although it is difficult. I'm into Community Service too , so will aply to that MLC too. Any recomnendations on this?
If you dont like typing:P - you can call me on my cell. I will pm you my cell no. I really did not want to call for fear of disturbing you during work.
Thanks a lot! | |
