There is no one type of student who should attend the University of Michigan. I have met so many different types of people. There is something here for everybody. Its a place to express yourself and find people like you. If you want, you can re-invent yourself. I think the key is to keep your eye on the goal, which is education. As long as you stay focused, you should be fine.
Allison
An academically strong student who appreciates the symbiotic relationship between learning and community. A student at the University of Michigan is interested in the arts, in interconnectedness, in sports, in friends, in research, in schoolwork, in his or her career, in personal development, and in life-changing opportunities. The University of Michigan is a fantastic place for any student to find his or her unique voice.
Kirstan
A person looking for an entirely unique college experience. What ever you imagine the Michigan experience as, I garuntee it will be completely different. Michigan is a great place for those not afraid to make new friends every day.
Chelsey
The University of Michigan is a very diverse and accepting atmosphere. I believe that any person who aspires to go to the University of Michigan should indubitably attend, because each and every person can have their own affect on the learning environment here. There is no single "type" of person that should attend, simply because each person, no matter what your personality or learning styles are, can have their own amazing and lasting affect on the University of Michigan and it's student body.

Really focused hard workers will do well at this school. This is not a joke. You really have to work hard in order to get good grades. The classes are large and professors hard to meet for officer hours. Work hard and you will probably do well.
Samantha
Anyone who is interested in a big school experience. It is a great place to meet tons of different people, but it is also very academically oriented. It is the school to go to if you want a great education, to meet people from all over the world, and have fun. The school spirit is unbelievable so it is definitely the place to go for school pride.
Christina
A person who enjoys lots of social events, yet has a strong focus on academics. Most students here are very driven and tend to leave and become successful in the real world due to earning a great degree and being able to make connections while on campus. Research is also strongly emphasized, so students are able to get real life experience before graduating.
Emily
Some one who is open minded. Someone who is willing to work hard. Someone with broad interests. And someone who does not mind snow and cold weather.
Shulamite
Someone who is self-motivated and eager to learn. Only this kind of person will make full use of the opportunities afforded them here.

I actually think that Michigan could be for anyone. There are amazing programs for almost any concentration in the school, and for those who don't want a large school environment, there are many opportunities to take classes with smaller numbers. For a big school, we give off a small school feel with our tight community. I would only say that someone coming to Michigan has to be ready to put themselves out there and be friendly.
