Damn good school, could care less about the "program" as long as the kid gets the degree.


Be careful with that type of statement. Michigan is a big school. Not all degrees hold the same weight, Depends on what the student/athlete's degree is.


You got that right. Ross School of business? You're in great shape. Only issue is, you have to apply after sophomore year. You had better have a 3.95 gpa. Lacrosse will have zero weight.



You are 100% correct...all degrees are not created equal. Michigan has a good engineering school (for a public school), but athletes may be discouraged from those types of degrees if they want to play sports. Michigan is an example of what really good marketing and branding can do. School is over-hyped and overrated like most big box rah-rah schools. Your son will be better positioned graduating from a boutique or smaller DI school than Michigan.


Flip side of that argument are the massive alumni bases that UM, PSU, ND, etc have EVERYWHERE to help in getting a job post college.
