University of Michigan-Ann Arbor Top Questions

What kind of person should not attend University of Michigan-Ann Arbor?

Robin

The University of Michiagn is not for students who are not willing to work hard for what they achieve. There is a lot of competition at this school, therefore it is essential that you keep up with your coursework. If you fall behind, you will have a large hole to dig out of. Also, people who are open minded and willing to learn and engage in subject matter are also encouraged to attend this University. You will learn a lot.

Joshua

Someone who is not ready to get out of their shell

Samantha

People should not attend this school if they are looking for a small school setting. The school itself is enormous and Ann Arbor, though it isn't huge, is still a city. Also, someone who is solely focused on partying and socializing should not attend this school because the academics are very challenging. If you're not prepared to study a lot then you will not do well at this school.

Steven

Someone who enjoys small schools or likes a more relaxed pace of classes/homework.

Alison

Someone who does not have an open mind or positive attitude should not attend this school. At this university, we have students of many different races and ethnicities. Therefore, if someone is intolerant of other cultures, they will not fit in here.

Mary

I don't know that there is a kind of person who SHOULDN'T attend the University of Michigan. We are very welcoming to all religious affiliations, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds. Perhaps someone who does not like the cold! It was definitely an adjustment moving from the warm south up to chilly Ann Arbor, but it is also a beautiful town! I also think someone who does not want the big University experience, and maybe was more interested in the small liberal arts college should steer clear of the University of Michigan. I love it! Go Blue!

Jennifer

A person who is lazy, won't take their studies seriously, needs to be coddled, and/or cannot handle academic pressure should not attend U-M.

Lisa

Someone who's looking for small class sizes, easily confused (because everything is 10x larger in Michigan), someone who can work easily by themselves without lots of advising from faculty, and someone who doesn't like the cold.

Nancy

If you plan on looking for a easy school to finish in four years think again. Grades are really hard to pull up once you bring them down. The workload is there to be finished and you don't do a half finished job on them because you are required to learn. You also have to step up and take control of your education the university offers many ways to help you succeed if you do not have the self motivation or the will to do it I wouldn't recommend this school.

Maybe someone from out of state who needs to go home often
