This changed and changed back for my son as well!
What did it say earlier?
Donāt know exact wording but generally that decisions had been sent out and how the secondary pathway worked. His status remained business preference.

Seemed odd because it said all invitations had been sent and referred to secondary pathway but according to the Broad website thereās 2nd round of invitation in early April. Portal message is no longer there.

Yeah, that looks like it was mistakenly sent out, since the next opportunity to be accepted direct admission will be in April.
I guess yesterdays change in portal was a mistakeāmy son got an email with a portal change this morning and got in to the business school. Good luck to everyone.

Congrats everyone : )
No update for my son. I wish we would have been aware of the Direct Admit process prior to applying and would have tweaked his essay a bit to demonstrate business interest better. Future applicants - take note!!
Great share for future applicants : ) We emphasized business in our Why Wisconsin essayā¦if only they had additional essays for the DA process. My sonās personal essay was very specific 5 year journey that changed his lifeā¦business didnāt really fit into the narrative. Oh well, onward and upwardā¦wherever that may be.

OOS/ TO / 3.8W ; dual enrollment Business pathway: OSU-Fisher -remains first choice
2 year part time job bussing tables at pizza restaurantā¦ essay connected

Hello - new to this thread but looking for advice, my son has several college admissions already but has his sights set on MSU Broad, he didnāt get first round invite, Iām trying to tell him not to be discouraged and that there is still a second round as well as he could still attend MSU and apply later on after he is there. Any insights on how many invitations go 1st round vs 2nd round, any insights on attending and applying later if this is really ātheā school. Just trying to navigate all of this as I am mom of 4 but this is our first going off to college
I have a junior at Michigan State (not Broad) and just wanted to put a plug in for the parents group on FB. Get the right one - the one with āGo Greenā in lights is run by the university and has staff answering questions. There is a ton of information there about primary and secondary admission to Broad. It is a relatively new process but parents speak about secondary admission and what happened if that didnāt work in their favor. The dean of undergraduate studies often answers questions, as well as folks from financial aid, honors college, etc. For a very large university, their staff is very accommodating in the group. The dean recently had a long-ish post about Broad admissions.
I can answer general questions about Michigan State (not Broad) if anyone is interested.
