<p>I was concerned about my GPA if I attend UMich. If buckling down is all that's necessary I'll be fine. </p>
<p>And UMich IS stingy with finacial aid. MSU is a lot more...charitable. But if UMich's prestige will help me a in a given field (business for my book-store or hotel, though MSU is supposed to be with that too) I'll attend it over MSU. </p>
<p>I absolutely must visit. A while ago I wouldn't have thought about visiting colleges-it didn't seem important. It is extremely important.</p>
