<p>Is it fairly typical for an admitted student to be "recruited" by an alumni? I've received a postcard, email, and phone call from an alumni telling me about the school, why I should attend, etc. I haven't received anything like this from any other school--is it a common practice for Michigan?</p>
<p>I'm not doing athletics or anything like that...</p>
<p>Haha join the club.</p>
<p>My S got invited to an alumni get together for admitted students to meet each other and get some Michigan stuff.</p>
<p>The top privates have been doing this for years. Michigan is just catching up, celebrating her 10th anniversary of alumni student recruiting last year.</p>

Good opportunity to meet some local alumni and establish your local alumni network early.</p>
