University of Michigan-Ann Arbor Top Questions

Is the stereotype of students at University of Michigan-Ann Arbor accurate?

Nico

Some people are rich and very smart and some people aren't very attractive but this is not true of all Michigan students, so NO.

Paige

Some of them are accurate

Cris

Mostly, but not all people that go to Michigan are rich and from Long Island.

Whitney

for the most part

Jessica

No. While there are many sports fans, not all students are into the football/sport craze. Additionally, I think Michigan is a great and fun school with a large social scene.

Brett

People are not as smart and hard working as I thought

Ali

I'd definitely say that Michigan students are smarter than students at a lot of other schools, especially rivals Michigan State and Ohio State. Otherwise, I tend to disagree--judge people individually and you'll go much farther in the long run.

Ash

For certain people yes, but there will be people like that everywhere you go

Stef

These stereotypes are definitely not accurate. Students at Michigan definitely know how to party, they just know how to balance school and partying in order to succeed.

Marissa

Sometimes. There are rich people here. But there are also lots of people who come from middle and lower class backgrounds. And yes, some people are snobs. Some people do think they are better because they go to Michigan.
