How did you answer the “why Michigan” essay?
What academic area are you interested in and what extras does Michigan offer in that area? Do your other school choices offer anything better?
For example - my d is interested in Public Policy and Community Service and could come up with a bunch of things offered at Michigan in those areas - extras that aren’t at smaller schools. The “why Michigan” essay practically wrote itself.

I loved my time at Michigan and even though I wasn’t overly driven and purposeful like the students today seem to be, I ended up as president of a student organization and part of an amazing community of talented leaders.
