^“Here’s my response to that: if Michigan truly
wants more OOS students, then make it worth our while to attend a place that has
one of the poorest OOS merit-based scholarship track records among similar quality schools.”
@michiganwannabe - Michigan wants a large share of OOS because they can fill the seats at full cost. While they have a current campaign to raise funds that will improve OOS need-based (before merit), Michigan still is relying on the OOS tuition to fund the University and keep in state tuition down. Much of this is caused of course by the ever reduced % of state funding.
