Internal transfers within schools at UMich is relatively easy for the most part. Internal transfers into Ross, and probably SMTD and STAMPS, are difficult. An internal transfer from Ross to LSA would be easy. But getting your degree may or may not take longer.
We’re from the SF Bay Area, my kid will be a sophomore at UMich LSA. We passed on several top UC’s and CP SLO (and I love SLO ?), so we think UMich is prestigious. But the next person may not think so.
UVa and UNC are awesome public schools too. There are differences, for example, UVa has a much bigger Greek culture, whether that matters either way I don’t know. But the main difference is that UMich is behind only Clemson, Bama and Georgia in terms of the odds to win a national football championship. And their 2020 recruiting class is 7th in the country right now ?
