There are very few privates that offer the overall academic excellence that Michigan provides.  It’s no value to pay high fees to either a public or private school if it doesn’t measure up.   Your comment is too simplistic and generalized.

Those few are ivy/plus, deemed by some other articles to be uchcago stanford duke and mit…throw in hopkins and northwestern: they all provide a demonstrably better education and experience: more resource $ per student, smaller on average classes and a smarter on average peer group than Michigan. Depending on particular needs one could argue WashU, Vanderbilt, Notre Dame, Georgetown, and the top LAcs are at least a match to umich if not better, due to resources per student, better student professor ratios etc
For others the large size and sports of Michigan makes it better than the others in the second tier[/quote]
