So according to Michigan undergraduate the new integrated engineering/ business degree is going to be a small cohort. No information of how many students but they kept saying small. Especially for this first go around. Itās run through Ross and they feel having the full business degree can lead to interesting opportunities. Of course there will be overlap with like Industrial engineering. Engineering with business Ross minors and other business minors like entrepreneurship. Seems to be people who want to go into business with engineering principles and people that want to go more into businesses management within engineering.
Thanks for sharing, @Knowsstuff!
So I went out to eat last week with a company. The main guy graduated from University of Michigan Ross. Got his MBA at Wharton.
Without him knowing that I am involved here he told me that Michigan was 10x harder than Wharton!! 
I say this yearly. Be careful what you wish for. Lol. Michigan is a tough school. Many struggle the first semester /year till they understand what the professors want from the students.
Use every resource they have at the start. Peer to peer, office hours, graduate hours, Science! Math labs, writing labs, etc. Some of the best students I have known to graduate used these resources.
When your kids go to Michigan they will be on campus at one of the best hospital systems in the country and the leading one in Michigan.

Hello everybody! Iām applying this fall and have a couple of questions if any of you can offer insight. So from my understanding you can self report your SAT scores for UMich, and when you get accepted, you just have to send in the official score report to prove that you werenāt lying. What I was wondering was if you could just send in your official score report in your application instead of self-reporting? Also, if that is an option, then in your opinion, would it be better to self-report or send the official report? Iām only curious because the official report isnāt a part of the common app like the self-reporting is. Thank you!
Save your money (sending official reports costs $) and self report.
Some families choose to submit and some self score until they know their accepted then they need to send their final proof.

I think that has more to do with undergraduate degree vs. MBA than it does Michigan vs. Wharton.
I obtained my engineering degree at a little known non-brand name school and my MBA from a T3 business school (in the caliber of Wharton). I can say without doubt that my bachelors degree was significantly harder. As in, not even close. An MBA just isnāt particularly hard, at least compared to STEM.
Interesting. The funny thing was he didnāt know my relationship to Michigan like on here. We just gave him a fist bump and said āGo Blueā.. But he found out after his comment. Lol
