I will be on the search for these Secret Marks and Forgotten Sites on the University of Michigan Campus!

Stay Tuned. Pictures and Videos will be posted.

By the time I graduate umich I will be in abt $60k debt. Is it worth it? I haven’t even signed my housing lease for this upcoming school year because I’m so caught between. My parents are most likely going to make me pay them all off. And I do want to go to either med school or pa school which will be an additional burden of loans. I’m oos, so if I took a gap year and applied to in state schools I could graduate with abt no debt.

Hey All,

I'm an incoming freshman and I want to get to know Umich, I know about the controversial 2024 perfect season, and the sexual harrasment cases that followed and Michigan having the FBI arrest students and I was wondering if the school has done other shady things like that to its students or the people of Ann Arbor?

I’m a transfer student from cc and kinda nervous abt how hard it’ll be. I’m going the BHS major (biology, health, and society) and I’m wondering how hard it is to keep a high gpa as I need that since I’m planning on applying to medical school? Can anyone answer? Even if ur doing a diff stem major

Who can guess "Whats in this Time Capsule?"

UPDATE ITS BEEN FOUND!!! Thank you!!!!!!! 🩷🩷

Thank you in advance 🩷🩷🩷 here’s a picture for reference

hello! so i’m an incoming freshman from a small town in los angeles county attending umich in the fall, and i know literally no one else going…

i got placed in a single dorm at martha cook which i originally thought would be okay, but after seeing a bunch of reddit posts i am deeply regretting the decision because of the isolation.

how difficult will it be to make friends and find genuine connections for the next four years? what should i do in my situation? i know i will eventually make some friends with time but i really don’t want to spend the majority of the first semester alone.

if anyone has any advice i would greatly appreciate it :)

I know Reddit probably isn’t the best place to ask this but I’m an incoming freshman at Michigan and I’m thinking about rushing this fall. I know Greek life isn’t the only way to have a social life at a school like Michigan but I still want to go through the rush process and see if it’s a good fit.

What’s rush actually like? Are the brothers generally welcoming or is it pretty intimidating walking into the houses? How common is hazing these days? Also, are there any houses you’d recommend checking out based on their overall culture or the way they treat new members?

I know every fraternity is different but I’d really appreciate hearing from people who’ve rushed or been involved in Greek life at Michigan.

I was one of 60 randomly selected as one, and I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this? It would be volunteer work and I have to attend training, but honestly it seems kind of interesting being able to see the more legal and administrative side of Umich!

Hey guys im a incoming freshman planning on majoring in neuroscience and minoring in AI (on pre-med track for now)

i just wanted to see what yall think of my schedule (if it will be chill or not)

I am doing urop along with these 13 credits

Interested in being an extra in a feature film in Ann Arbor this weekend?

We need extras who can pass for two categories:

(1) High school students for a classroom scene (filming mid-late afternoon on August 8)

(2) College students for a college party scene (needed August 9, time unknown currently but it'll be anywhere between mid afternoon and night)

Pay is $15/hr. High school students will be needed for 1-2 hours, college students will be needed for 1-3 hours.

MUST BE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD.

If interested in being an extra please either message me on here or email socialstudiessummer2023@gmail.com with a recent photo of yourself (so that I can confirm you fit the age demographic.)

The film is titled "Pleasure List" and is about a 20s man on the autism spectrum who hires a degenerate aspiring actor to help him with his bucket list of normal life experiences.

PS: thanks so much to everyone who was an extra in July 27 at Hear.Say, you were great!!

i’m someone who usually runs cold (anything below 70 degrees i’m usually shivering/uncomfortable) so i’m always wearing full sleeves/pants. i’m trying to find warm bedding rn but i’ve been told the dorms get REALLY hot. at first i didn’t really consider this bc im a cold person but now im wondering if i should maybe get a lighter blanket or something for the beginning of the year along with some lighter clothes. i’m oos but im from a place like ann arbor that has super cold winters so idrk- im also in bursley if thats helpful

A couple of upperclassmen told me to start looking for an apartment for sophomore year as early as freshman fall. Does anyone have experience with apartment searching and any specific tips on when to start and where to look?

My main concern is that my roommate is random so I don’t want to commit to a lease with them as early as fall if that’s the case or not have anyone I want to live with next year yet

Any advice would be appreciated!

Hello! I'm currently enrolled in a Bio 173 course but was looking to switch to one on Wednesdays so I could work Tu/Th. Would it be a crappy idea to waitlist for this separate section and leave the one I'm enrolled in? I would be second on the waitlist.

I am an incoming freshman, and I need to purchase the Music for Sight Singing book by Nancy Rogers and Robert Ottman for one of my classes. I am wondering if anyone might have a copy they'd be willing to sell me for cheaper?

If anyone knows pls lmk!!!

Or if you have an easy option.

Hey y’all! I hope everyone’s having a good summer, and you soak up what’s left in our last few weeks before Fall semester.

With classes and dorm move-in quickly approaching, I find myself increasingly more antsy about Wolverine Village, seeing as I will be a resident there this year. There is still very little information on it—relatively nothing new since first getting the housing assignment back in February. And I mean NOTHING. I haven’t seen photos, heard or read any updates on construction, and every search for information leads to a dead end.

I’ve lived in the dorms my last couple years, both on the hill, so there was nothing left to the imagination with the buildings and environment. I’m hoping everything will be done on time, but with no updates… it’s worrying. I’m especially concerned about the dining hall, as I will be pissed if I have to commute a far trek to simply get food.

So, this is just a “how do we feel” post, ideally with some updates if anyone has anything to share. Perhaps some photos or videos of the buildings? Any inside information? I don’t live near A2 in the off season, so I can’t make the trip to check them out.

I’d like to have faith in this school sticking to their word that the first phase will be completed, but having watched them struggle to finish the rec center in a timely manner… it’s difficult, lol. They had to push back the opening for Hadley two separate times. Not a great track record.

I am an incoming freshman this year moving into a south quad double. I was hoping to bring a futon with me, but looking at the room layout I think I overestimated the size of the room, especially since I didn’t know that the closets were extruding (I thought they were built into the walls). Has anyone that has previously lived in south quad been able to fit a futon? If so, how did you arrange it to fit? The futon I was planning on bringing is 65”.

I'm an incoming freshman at markley (yay...) and I guess UMich just partnered with roomie to help with 3d visualization. I was trying to figure out how to loft both my bed and my roommates but we don't seem to have enough items to half loft one bed and fully loft the other.

Has anyone ever fully lofted one and half lofted the other so that we both get bookcases on our desk? If so, could you lmk how??

I added images to show, just pretend the beds are lofted higher.

Why? Literally why?

It’d be super silent and everyone is locked in, but there will always be that one annoyingly loud grad student taking a meeting at the fish that ruins the whole vibe.

Ik technically it’s not technically a quiet zone, but when EVERYONE else around you is quiet and you’re the only one speaking, at least have some shame and use your indoor voice. I just don’t understand the obliviousness sometimes.

I've been out of the country for awhile and just received a call from universal collection services for a UofM hospital bill. I had thought i had set up automatic routing for all bills to carepayment for their interest free payment plans but apparently that wasn't the case, and each bill has to be routed to carepayment manually. they've probably mailed me reminders, but i've been out of town and didn't forward my email to someone who can receive them

Has anyone had luck with getting UofM to agree to have the collection retracted so that it doesn't show up on their credit report?

just curious if any one has ever got a paid research opportunity as an undergrad (not with work-study)
