On 10/12/18 Michigan Tour guide Raoul seems to dislike "rich white men that donate 100 million dollars" to build a business school. Does it matter what skin color a man has Raoul? I thought you would not judge a man by his skin color or by how much money he has. What a poor representative to such an allegedly prestigious University.
I didn't go here, but visited the campus. The library is something straight out of Harry Potter. It's beautiful, and you can really feel the school spirit. I think the students, faculty, and anyone associated with the school is proud of it.
In the first place, Michigan remains a top-rated public university. It has many stellar departments, and your degree will open doors anywhere from social work to engineering to medicine. When I was there, the campus was nice and spacious. There are also many extra-curricular opportunities including football, Greek life and volunteering. However, Michigan is not for everyone. If you like a more intimate, hometown college feel, you may not prefer this school. On the other hand, if you are a self-starter and a second-generation college student, you will do fine.
Navigating U of M's serpentine class scheduling and financial aid systems as a first-generation college student would have been a nightmare. As an out-of-state student, I regret not seeking more grants and scholarships, otherwise I had a great experience at U of M.
I'm currently sitting in a Dr. Office at the U of M. I come here once to twice a week sometimes. The bathrooms are always dirty. I've seen cleaner at roadside gas station. They tell you to park in the Taubman parking structure. It's always packed because the Hospital employee's park there. The 2 elevators to get from the structure to the hospital the one is always broke. Has been for months. This place is going down hill fast. I could go on regarding a fall incident, wrong medicine being given to my son in ER. No I would not recommend this Hospital. In the process of switching out.
Great school of business, amazing faculty with an abundance of resources to enrich your educational experience. Ann Arbor is also the perfect college town. Forever Go Blue!! 〽
Fantastic people here, guy just gave me fifty cents so I could park when I asked him if I could trade five pennies for a nickel for the meter. Thanks guy!!
(The education offered at this University is also arguably the finest in Michigan)
The best of college football. Had the priveledge of being almond vendor there with an old friend a few yrs back.
I love the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. I consider U of M, UCLA and SNHU three of the best colleges in the world. Ann Arbor, Westwood/Los Angeles, and Manchester are the three best college towns of all-time. Everyone here is so friendly and nice. Diverse community and very clean as well. Every single program is ranked best in the world as well! GO BLUE!!!!!
For my mom, it was the best place for her to be. It's a great hospital. They have a market some mornings you can go and buy fresh fruit and flowers. Big cafeteria with lots of choices. It can be confusing your first visit, but it's not as difficult to navigate as one would think. You could tell the specialists and doctors really cared and wanted to help. The gave the facts and diagnosis gently but without sugar-coat.
This place is awesome! Tons of stuff to do, and it all doesn't involve the university, but the university is the town. Tons of places to eat, my favorite is Wise Guys, nice cheap Chicago style food. Totally awesome, and a great place to go hang out with friends
Nothing but an overpriced emotional coddling center. Professors are so Liberal-biased that one can be ostracized and chastised if they do not conform to the victim status/bash whitey attitude. The University proved just how non-inclusive they are during the last election. Even the president ostracized a portion of the school population. It's a shame that these once respectable institutions of higher learning are slowly becoming cesspools of whining babies who leave, totally unprepared for the real, unforgiving, hostile world. Believe me, hate lives here..every day. It's disguised though as intolerance of others' views.
This place can be great or terrible. A lot of it depends on luck. And a lot of it is on the university for not being as competent as they claim they are. I don't personally feel that the faculty is treated well. And I think a lot of unnecessary stress is put on students. Of course some amount of stress is normal when at university but U of M takes it to another level. The financial aide program is a joke. Each person you talk to there will tell you different information from the last time you spoke with someone at the office, leaving you very confused. Advisors are over worked and not properly trained for the job. I'm not really sure who is the ultimate cause of the trouble many people face at U of M but I hope someone can figure it out so then everyone who works there or attends the school can have a good experience. The education over all is good. Wich of course is one of the top priorities. However with the way things are at the school now I don't know that the education is worth the money. The amount of stress and lack of help or accurate information is most definitely not worth the money. I would like to see U of M take people's complaints or issues with them seriously. Maybe someday the school will be more organized and everyone who is involved with it can have a great experience and gain the knowledge they need to succeed.
I have a broken rib an broken hip i have neen in hall way since 730pm it is now 2am i have seen no dr or nurse and it took me 1.5 hour to see triage
Incredibly beautiful campus, even in the winter time. Close to a couple blocks of pretty cool night life downtown.
My 16 year old niece is considering attending the University. We took a campus orientation seminar and then roamed all 3 parts of campus. Lots to see and do. Museums, bars, restaurants, music venues, sports complexes, plus. Very impressive
U of M is right in the middle of downtown Ann Arbor and so it is extremely pleasant to walk around on campus. The academic buildings are extremely nice as well, inside and out. It is a very large school so the student generally remains fairly anonymous (but if they make an effort, they can stand out) so they remain distant from the professors. The University also has tons of extracurricular activities of all kinds -- which is awesome, but does make it difficult to find time to study. Overall, it's a great place to be and offers so many opportunities, it can be an amazing incubator for professional success.
