UW Madison vs UM Ann Arbor

<p>I'm going to apply to both schools soon and I have a good chance of getting into both, especially UW. I'll be applying to grad school for Kinesiology under the Exercise Physiology track. Michigan has been my dream school for ever but the price of out of state is a big turning point. I live in Texas so both are going to be out of state unless I decide to take a year off... From what I've researched Wisconsin has a better campus with the lakes and the Union offering such an awesome student hang out area. There isn't as much out there about Michigan student life on campus or off campus that I've found. So if someone who has gone to Michigan could let me know about all of it that would be awesome! Wisconsin also has State Street right next to campus. I'll be coming from Texas so having family in Michigan is a big plus. I'm going to visit both campuses sometime but I want to know what I should be looking for when I visit and what you guys like about UW or UM campus and program. I'm completely torn right now so anything helps!</p>

<p>I'm might end up getting my PHD at some point also so any information on PHD Exercise Physiology programs will be great!</p>

<p>Also, I know about the success of both schools in all sports so its even there. Well, except for Michigan having The Big House.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
