[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MSU also has some type of scholarship program that is similar to but smaller than the Michigan Honors Program but comes with a lot of money.  Some really top notch students choose MSU over Michigan for that reason as well.

It's so obvious you're MSU alum from college confidential with 100k posts.[/quote]

That's hilarious.  I went to Michigan, actually, and I can make fun of Little Brother (Moo U) just like any other proud Wolverine.  But the truth is that MSU is a great college and [b]does attract some kids who would have done very well at Michigan.[/b][/quote]

Not in any significant volume. Cross-admit data indicates over 90% who get into both choose the state flagship. Practically none of the competitive out of state applicants to Michigan even waste time applying to MSU.

And MSU is broke. Their scholarships are few and far. UM is far wealthier, so the "scholarships" and financial aid offers are 10x more generous.[/quote]
