Medical schools admissions are based largely on GPA, MCAT, and EC’s/jobs showing commitment to or interest in the medical field. They do not really consider your undergrad institution in the equation, and both UW and UM are fine schools. Given the high cost of medical school, I would choose whichever school costs less for you, and consider which environment will be more enjoyable. It snows a lot more in Ann Arbor, for instance, and it’s probably cheaper to fly/drive back and forth from Seattle to CA. Good luck! You can hardly go wrong with either choice.
