This is the worst university on the planet, as a black male being at the University of Michigan, I was so badly harassed due to the EXTREME racism suffered while I was attending this god forsaken place. Thank god I transferred out of there to a COMMUNITY college. However I am still gangstalked to this day as a result of attending there. Oh.....and if you do think its hard to get in, let me tell you about my admission into the school; I recieved a 20 on the ACT and a 2.8 GPA average to get in. Funny, I got into U of M because I was black, but got harassed due to my skin color......AMAZING!

I went to Michigan because of its reputation. Unfortunately, being from out of state, I didn't know anyone who had actually gone there. The campus is pretty, although thanks to the amount of never ending maintenance, it usually looks like a construction site. The school spirit is great, and the parties aren't too bad, but this school has a high percentage of nerds and truth be told, isn't the best looking student body in the country. However, my biggest single gripe is that this place is a high priced diploma mill. The professors don't teach, they simply assign lots of reading. I guess they are under too much pressure to publish to actually become involved with the students. I don't know if the TAs teach or not, for most of mine don't speak English. There are better choices out there.

The university sounded nice and friendly at first. But once, you are in, you realize the arrogant, competitive, rude, and self-absorbed nature of almost everyone. It's not just student and faculty either, the whole city of Ann Arbor is rude. People maybe be nice to your face, but they have about as much caring in their hearts as Helen Keller had sight in her eyes.
The professors set you up to fail. Deliberatly making the exams above your knowledge, and above what they-or the books have taught you. And good luck getting any help from the profs/gsi s--teach yourself. I will most likely transfer because of this crappy "teaching" style. I feel as if the atmosphere is thick with an "I'm better than you" or "you suck" attitude.
