The OP appears to have disappeared, but taking his/her word on being premed and wanting to become a doctor, he/she should pick the school where he/she can achieve the highest gpa and save money/have no debt because med school is very expensive. He/she has the best chance of a higher gpa at Central Michigan and it is a full ride/zero cost/no debt! Central Michigan has a med school so the OP can have a chance to shadow doctors perhaps engage in research there. And he/she can stand out from his/her peers academically. In contrast, if the OP went to Michigan, I think he/she would face an uneven playing field—he/she would be competing against one of the wealthiest student bodies (the 45% out-of-state students, most of whom are in the one percentile of family wealth, and who come into Michigan with some of the highest stats of any students in the country, and thus they have the resources to pay for private tutors for difficult premed classes, have family connections for medical internships and shadowing, & can afford the best test prep course for MCAT)—-this would be the OP’s competition— plus the competition against the highest achieving students from in-state Michigan high schools. So the OP faces an uphill battle right from the start against his/her premed classmates for earning top tier gpa and overall med school credentials which are needed to gain entrance to medical schools. Because medical schools will pick the best candidates from each school. The OP has a better chance of being the best med school candidate at Central Michigan. And if he/she changes his mind after freshman or sophomore year and decided against premed/med school, then he/she can likely be able to transfer to Michigan and earn that coveted University of Michigan degree.
