Information for Prospective Students

Students are admitted to the College by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions (1220 Student Activities Building, 515 East Jefferson Street, (734) 764-7433, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1316) from whom appropriate forms and instructions are available. The Director of Undergraduate Admissions welcomes prospective freshman students who wish to participate in a group information session prior to submitting an application; appointments should be arranged in advance.

A non-refundable application fee of forty dollars is required of all who seek degree admission to the University. This fee is not required of applicants seeking readmission, of students requesting cross-campus transfers, or of new transfer applications from UM – Dearborn or UM – Flint. A two hundred dollar enrollment deposit which is applied toward tuition is required of all new students admitted to the College.

The Horace H. Rackham Graduate School of Graduate Studies administers the application process for more than 120 departments and programs. Departments recommend admission to Rackham which monitors procedures and finalizes decisions as appropriate. Therefore, when application is made, materials must be sent to two different offices – Rackham and the intended department(s).

You must send the application fee of U.S. $55 to the Rackham Mail Office with Page One of the Rackham Application. Applications received without fees will not be processed. One application fee is required per term. Applications may be submitted to no more than three Rackham departments or programs per application fee, per term.
