In state student, out of state student. What do you think?

<p>As my junior year is getting closer to ending, I'm getting more interested in college.
Many say Michigan State University does not offer well scholarships ( including FASA) although I know someone who didn't apply to the school until March and got accepted around April. Where are they now? Attending the school, only have to pay about 1-2000 dollars, and stay in their dorms etc.... Others claim University of Michigan-Ann Arbor is more likely to support in scholarships, and others say attending a school out of state your more likely to be offered well in scholarships.
I once was only going to apply to Michigan State University, but learn it may not be so safe. So I added University of Michigan- Ann Arbor on the list, but hearing the out of state comment... I'm thinking I should add a out of state school as well.</p>

<p>With what I posted above be accurate?
Also anyone know any schools similar to Michigan State University and University of Michigan- Ann Arbor?
