<p>Everywhere I looked it said that Michigan has an application fee of $65, but on my common app payment page there is a yellow box next to Michigan indicating "ready for payment" - yet it says that there is no application fee. I don't have a fee waiver, and I've paid for all of my other colleges. Has UMich always had a free application?</p>
<p>Did you apply to any other U-M schools? If you did, then your fee for U-M Ann Arbor is waived. Otherwise, I don’t know what the deal is. U-M’s app fee is $65 for everyone unless they applied to another U-M school already or unless they got their fee explicitly waived.</p>
<p>No, this is the only UM school I’m applying to. I’m using an alternate version of my common app for UMich though (I made a small change), if that makes any difference. Though I don’t think it does because I added another college just as a test and there was an application fee for that one. I’m also confused because the payment says “complete” yet there is still the yellow box meaning it is “ready for payment”. Any other ideas?</p>
