Ross VIP (Visit in Person)

Ross VIP is offered on select days from September-March.

This program offers you a taste of a day in the life of a Ross student. Our student Ambassadors will share their experiences and candidly answer your questions on all facets of life at Ross.  You will spend additional time with current students as you tour the facilities and gain a broad overview of our community, program, and student life.  This program also provides two opportunities to attend classes and truly experience action-based learning in the classroom environment.  Additionally, visiting on a Thursday gives you an opportunity to interact with our students on an informal basis at a Happy Hour sponsored by the Ross Students Association.  Friday Ross VIP does not include class visits.
