University of Michigan-Ann Arbor Top Questions

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

Emily

yes.

David

Not at all.

Brittany

Yes--most of the time. Most students at Michigan were big fish in small ponds during high school and then when you come to Michigan everyone becomes a small fish in a big lake. So most students push themselves really hard to become a big fish again.

Naomi

No, there's a lot of people who struggle to pay tuition.

Tristan

Less than accurate., more than fiction.

Madison

Students are probably both less studious and less snobbish than the stereotypes suggest. There is a wide range, especially in studiousness.

James

Some. The Big 10 stereotypes are true about some people, but there's a ton of kids here that couldn't care less about Greek Life or football. Also, as I said before, the "ugly girls" stereotype definitely isn't true but Ann Arbor's reputation is pretty dead-on--which is what I love most about it.

Caleb

I think to a certain degree, yes.

colin

see above.

Jennifer

no...I mean not everyone is a beauty queen, but we have some good lookers and the nightlife is great - there is something for everyone from frats, dance clubs, bars, and house parties. And if you aren't in the mood for a party there is always something to do.
