Freshman applications set new records again

<p>University</a> of Michigan News Service | Freshman applications to U-M continue to set new records</p>

<p>"Prospective freshmen submitted 46,733 applications for admission for academic year 2013–2014, an increase of 10 percent over the previous year's record of 42,480."</p>

<p>"Approximately 6,000 first-year students are expected to enroll by fall term 2013."</p>

<p>I expect this sort of increase for a few more years. We should reach the 50,000 milestone next year and will likely be around 60,000 for Michigan’s bicentennial.</p>
