@yikesyikesyikes umich is working towards giving better financial aid to out of state students but they would have to accept fewer out of state students to make sure they don’t overenroll and there will still be lots of out of state students who will choose an ivy league over umich even if umich did give them great aid. umich is a public university so they will never become as generous as say harvard and princeton but it certainly is better than it was before.
