Michigan (LSA Honors) vs. Northwestern (Medill) for Black Students

@encyclopedia

Most students would find NU to be more conventionally diverse than Michigan.

Not by much, IMO. I could only find NU’s 2020-2021 CDS. Michigan’s is 2021-2022.

White students:
NU 41%
Michigan 53%

Black students:
NU 6%
Michigan 4%

Of course, Michigan is a large public school and admits about 50% of their student population from the State of Michigan.

I’d be curious to know where you heard that Northwestern has no social life and that the campus attracts socially awkward folks.

Here’s a CC short thread from 2017 about Northwestern social life:

Northwestern Social Life

I applied ED to Northwestern and I am wondering about the social life. I am very sociable and like going out to parties, going to sporting events and tailgating, and going out every night of the weekend. How common is this at Northwestern? Is there a vibrant social life? I am really looking for a classic college experience with a lot going on. I am also interested in greek life, but I want to know if there are a lot of options on the weekends and during the week at NU. Thank you
