The poster said Michigan was less but not by much. Your situation is one of best fit and feel. You can make a large university small very easily and close advising is up to you. Same with relationships with professors etc. They are standing by ready to help you in anyway they can. As far as it being a party school or you have to go to parties/games … Well you are an adult now. You get to make those choices for yourself. My non party son just finished his freshman year and didn’t go to one party (or at least that is what he tells me). He met like minded kids and did things with them. He couldn’t find a club that interested him so he and others started their own with school backing and support. As far as research… Michigan is one of the top research facilities… Period. Email a professor or two and do research… Also they have one of the best career placements. You will get a job when you graduate…

Also forget about rank. It truly doesn’t matter at either school. No potential company that is offering you a job has any clue on rank. They do know the reputation of the schools in general and the types of potential employees they make.

Depending on where you come from it won’t feel to large of a school either. Most or all of your classes will be on central campus. It is very nice but really not that large. You will have tons of choices for food and entertainment but most will stick to their meal plan and splurge every now and then. My daughter goes to a private college with less then 2,000 students and didn’t think Michigan felt to large when visiting her brother on central campus.

You have two great choices so go with your gut and go blue!!
