<p>Michigan is a great school. I've visited it a couple of times, and a few of my undergrad friends have gone on to UMich for grad school. I think your decision will have to come down to the atmosphere of both schools since they both offer great business programs. You should visit both colleges to see which one fits your style. Judging by your "Popped Collar" thread, UVa is more of a popped collar school than UMich. UVa is known for its preppiness, which can be a good or bad thing. UVa is also really known for its excellent student-teacher interaction and is a little more intimate since it has 13,000 undergrads vs. UMich's 24,000. On the other hand, UMich has such wide-reaching diversity. I remember seeing a poster on campus for a gay Asian students organization (man, that's specific!) called MOTHRA (Most Of The world's Homosexuals aRe Asian). Speaking of which, I have a friend here in NY who was a member. Also, another thing to think about is financial aid. UVa offers the best financial aid overall among public schools. I'm not sure about UMich, but middle-class/rich in-state & out-of-state students won't incur loans over $15,000. Any amount of need above that will be covered with grants. Plus, if you're a poor student, all your financial need will be covered with grants rather than loans. </p>
<p>Whatever the case, both schools offer an excellent education and are highly respected nationwide.</p>
