<p>On the collegeboard website, it states that michigan fulfills 90% of need based aid on average. Is there any validity to this statistic? Here is the link if u would like to see for yourselves.</p>
<p>I was just wondering if anybody had any info on this. Also when people talk about not good aid for out of staters, do they mean just scholarships and grants, or loans too. thanx</p>
<p>Since that statistics seems to combine both resident and non-resident students, I'm not sure it really tells us much. Michigan meets 100% of the need of its resident students, and they weigh heavily in that average.</p>
<p>anyone else have any knowledge on the topic???????</p>
<p>anybody at all?????plz im desperate for info</p>
<p>Financial aid recently redid their website--I think that's the best information you are going to get. Here's one packaging example, which shows that they office of financial aid leaves a gap:

<p>Anyone else's info is either going to be anecdotal (and therefore not entirely useful) or not public (which they cannot share).</p>
<p>My understanding is that UMich is NOT generous with out of staters. They are not going to get much of the university money which they tend to allocate to instaters.</p>
