In general, NU is more selective than UMich. However, one thing to keep in mind is UMich’s admission, like most public schools, is more mechanical and perhaps based on a well-defined formula. That explains why a person with low GPA would have no chance at UMich while the more holistic admission at NU takes into consideration of other factors and let that person in if they are fabulous.
