Michigan is a great school, with excellent pedigree. Companies from all over come to AA to recruit, especially engineering and business students.
From CA, there is a bit of mystery for you among east coast/midwest schools. AA can be bit brutal in the long winters, more so for you than others. At the same time, AA is among the most livable cities in the US.
Out of state is lot more competitive, be prepared to be surprised how high the standard may be.
I visited the north campus for engineering, and posted my initial reaction, you could check it out if you cannot manage a visit.
Good luck.
