Also, Michigan is one of the easiest strong schools to transfer to. They have around a 35% acceptance rate for transfers if not higher. Many of the others have a 1-2% acceptance rate.

It's worth a shot!





And that number considers in state kids who are currently at community colleges.

But do they prioritize in-state students like with freshman admissions?





No, it seems to be the reverse. They are need aware for transfers so it's pretty much full-pay only. They like the OOS money.
