Mechanical Engineering at UoM(Ann arbor) or UIUC

<p>Also, I just want to clarify something. Why do people say that UMich is more expensive than UIUC. The cost for non-residents at both colleges are roughly the same according to the websites below.</p>

<p>Michigan - [University</a> of Michigan Office of Financial Aid: Cost of Attendance](<a href=“http://www.finaid.umich.edu/Financial_Aid_Basics/cost.asp]University”>http://www.finaid.umich.edu/Financial_Aid_Basics/cost.asp)</p>

<p>Illinois - [University</a> of Illinois Financial Aid: Undergraduate Non-Resident 2009-2010 Cost](<a href=“http://www.osfa.uiuc.edu/cost/undergrad/nonres_0910.html]University”>http://www.osfa.uiuc.edu/cost/undergrad/nonres_0910.html)</p>

<p>any comments?</p>
