Depends largely on whether you want to be just another number. Btw, the Ross program is small (around 350 per year), slightly less than Caroll (484).</p>
<p>Out of the 16 professors I’ve had, 15 were amazing and easily available to teach the material to me outside of class. I have some complaints about UM, but the teaching quality and devotion to undergraduate education is, in my opinion, incredible.</p>
<p>Like almost any university, UM has some ‘bad’ teachers. However, by talking to your classmates and using ratemyprofessors, you should be able to avoid them handily.</p>
<p>I got into BC and UMich’s honor program. I suggest that if you are worried about becoming just another “number,” apply to the honors program. Not only will you have access to dedicated faculty, but a majority of your classes will be smaller than the typical freshman-level class (I have heard rumors of 20 to 30 kids per class, but I’m not certain of the validity of this claim.) Regardless, I am from the Boston area and can attest to the fun that comes with attending school in Boston. However, my warning to you is that under-21 partying is really curbed in Boston (i’ve heard fake id’s can be pretty unsuccessful here). At the end of the day, I would choose Michigan no questions asked, but that could be due to the fact I have lived in Boston for 10 years. I think a visit to each school may confirm your choice.</p>
