Application Deadlines

Admission to the full-time MAcc program is completed on a rolling admissions process. The Admissions Committee makes decisions throughout the admissions cycle starting on July 15, through March 1 of each school year. As the Admissions Committee still makes decisions throughout the admissions cycle on a first-come basis, it is advantageous to submit applications as early as possible. Only completed applications will be reviewed.  To be considered complete, we must receive all test scores, transcripts, letters of recommendation, and essays.  In addition, applicants are required to have completed 3 of the 4 accounting prerequisite courses, and the economics and statistics prerequisites prior to review of the application.  Applications received after the final regular deadline will be accepted and considered on a space-available basis. Admission to the MAcc program is for the fall term only. (Preference is given to those applications received by March 1). Applicants may only apply to one degree program at Michigan's Ross School of Business in any given admission cycle. Refer to chart below for application deadlines.

Admission Deferrals

The Admissions Committee can grant requests to defer admission to the MAcc program only in cases of extreme personal medical emergencies; approved deferrals have a one-year limit. Admitted applicants interested in a deferral should contact the Program Director of the MAcc at rossmac@umich.edu for more information.

Reapplication

Reapplication is relatively simple. The School retains credentials and other materials sent with the original application for two years from the original date of proposed entry. If reapplying after the two-year period has elapsed, applicants must submit new supporting materials as well as the application form and fee. Individuals interested in reapplication should contact the Office of Admissions for a reapplication packet. Applicants may only apply to one degree program at Michigan's Ross School of Business in any given admission cycle.
