I’m a student at UMich and don’t have any friends going to the concert :( If you’re part of a friend group and someone backed out, or if you’ve got an extra ticket, I’d love to join! Promise I’m not a weirdo lol

hey all im a incoming umich freshman and am currently #2 on the waitlist for second year spanish. For a class like this where there is a language req what are the chances that I get off the waitlist?

Anyone who took BIO 305 in the summer last year or even the year before please help me out. Does it get better? I did everything and my score for the first exam is disappointing. I’m above the average but that’s not what I was aiming for. Plus they say it was supposed to be the easiest exam and the avg was 69 🫩

Hey all! I'm a U-M student finishing research for my ES 414 course project. It's about how people keep track of their laundry (forgetting a load in the machine, walking down to the laundry room only to find it's still going, dealing with shared dorm/apartment machines, etc.) We're testing a possible product idea, and campus laundry is basically the perfect use case.

It takes about 2 minutes and asks for no personal info.

Would really appreciate your take: https://tally.so/r/KYNGYz

Thanks, Go Blue!

Hey so I'm going to be a junior and wanna know if this looks doable. Keep in mind that I will be having an internship as well that requires 20 hrs a week (which is why I crammed the labs for one day lol).

Do you guys have any tips or heads up or time commitments for the classes I'm taking [ME350,ME320,EECS314]

Thanks!

I’m an incoming freshman who is dorming and I already have a car. I also have a job lined up in ann arbor buts it’s kinda on the outskirts so i’d like to be able to drive back and forth, plus I currently live like 30-40 minutes away so I would like to keep it to come back home. I’ve heard that passes are only for juniors and seniors but i’m pretty sure that through the school and was wondering if the city had parking or anything like that. any info helps.

Has anyone taken physiol 404? I have to take it since I’m pre pa but I’m nervous because I looked at rate my professor and the ratings are terrible. I’m technically still on the waitlist bc apparently the class is reserved for graduate students? But I don’t know anyone personally who has taken it and I have a lot do pre pa/premed upperclassmen friends so I’m curious ab this course bc I’m also taking orgo at the same time

Hi! I was wondering if anyone had any experience or info on the process and experience of applying to be an LA for the Physics 150 classes. Also, any info on when the application comes out? I saw it for Spring 2026 but haven’t seen one for fall yet. Any and all info is appreciated!!!

I watch a lot of soccer and club soccer. Any clubs on campus for people who watch soccer/soccer enthusiasts?

help settle a friendly and sorta dumb debate among my friends: does a lanyard or badge reel give off more “grad student vibes” (i.e; you see two identical people and one has a lanyard and one has a badge reel, which one are you guessing is a grad student)

what are some good "easy" gpa booster classes at the u of m? looking for suggestions as i plan this term.
what did u like, why did u like it.

Im a rising sophomore planning to declare EE and am interested in the embedded/chip design paths (looking at EECS427 for MDE).

Now that I am done most of my core classes (math115/116, phy140/240, engr100/101, chem130, some IB/geneds) I am struggling to figure out which course path will best prepare me for internship recruiting.

I have no incoming credits so a little worried about the workload over the next few years. Here is my tentative course plan, id love some thoughts and improvements.

Soph Fall: math215, eecs280, eecs215, tchnclcm300, 4 cr IB

Soph winter: math216, eecs270, eecs216, eecs200, 2 cr IB

Junior fall: eecs301, eecs230, eecs320, ioe202(flex tech)

Junior winter: eecs312, eecs300, ULEE, 4cr IB

Senior fall: eecs427, eecs400, tchnclcm496, 4cr flex tech

Senior winter: ULEE, 3cr flex tech, gen eds

I studied abroad this past semester in Japan through a CIEE program and am now apart of a refer a friend program.

If you are applying to study abroad anytime soon (CIEE program), and would like a $200 discount off of tuition, please let me know!

This is such a non issue to ask about, but I thought I might as well 😭 Are freshman who are still 17 by the time welcome week roles around still allowed into the parties?? Because I see a lot of posts on social media that they’re only 18+.

I got placed into Spanish 231 but I went through the syllabus and reflected on my own ability to speak Spanish and I feel like I would struggle and fail Spanish 231. I got put into it after taking my placement exam, which I mostly guessed on. I only took up to Spanish 2 in high school. What should I do and who should I talk to be put into a lower level of Spanish?

Hi!! Soo, I'm an incoming freshman, and I'm going to be taking orgo this upcoming fall. Because there were no more seats available with Professor Nolta, I had to sign up for Tuttle's lectures, but I plan on attending Nolta's because it works better with my schedule, and I heard she's a great professor. My only worry is whether their exams will be different, and if I only watch Nolta's lectures but take Tuttle's exams, will it affect me negatively?

Oh, also! Should I inform both professors that I'll be attending Nolta's lectures in case I ask her a question and she tries to look me up but realizes I'm not in her class? HELP PLEASE 😭

There were away tickets available for enrollment in a lottery to purchase and they said they’d be given out the week of July 20th. I was wondering if anyone got them and if they released the tickets and I didn’t get the lottery, or if they just haven’t released them.

Whoever designed this place should honestly be held accountable—this building is just wrong. A windowless "room" (which isn’t even a real room, let’s be honest) is more like a prison cell, except you’re allowed to leave. No natural light means no circadian rhythm, which means you’re constantly fighting your own body and mind. It will mess you up. And for what? Over $1,000 a month—for a cell. In Ann Arbor, that kind of money gets you a real place with actual windows, fresh air, and, you know, basic human living conditions. If you’re looking to ruin your mental health, this is the perfect spot.

I like to make my own shirts for concerts. I’d love your feedback on these ideas for a tshirt or any other suggestions. Thank you.

Hi, I'm a new SLC facilitator this semester, and I was wondering, for anyone who has been in an SLC study group or will be signing up for an SLC study group, if there's a certain day of the week/time that they can most easily, consistently join weekly?

I'm also curious to know if there's been particular things anyone has liked or disliked from SLC study groups, and anything they would like to see in the future from a facilitator? In my experience attending study groups, for example, there were certain structures that I liked more than others.

I would love to know your opinion even if you have not/will not be joining an SLC group! Thank you! ❤️

I’ve had to speak with the In-state residency office, financial aid, admissions, etc and EVERYONE is so angry. 😭😭 In the worst mood ever. I’m scared to even call with my questions anymore. I’m a non traditional student so this system is not built for students like me so there are a ton of questions that I have and every single time they are so MEAN lol. No matter how pleasant and annoyingly nice I try to be. I was concerned about my in state application not being approved in time and the person I spoke to today literally told me to just unenroll if I didn’t think I could afford it without the application approval ! 😭 🧍🏻‍♀️
I don’t even know if that was good advice??? Do I just unenroll? The residency office said to defer until winter so I know it will be squared away in time which I found out was not even an option in this circumstance so who knows????
Is it always like this? :(
I’m coming from a community college where everyone was usually pretty nice save for a few bad days that we all have sometimes. Should I unenroll and try again next year? I can’t afford the tuition without the Go blue!

Edit (I’m currently 16 weeks out from my application submission date for in state residency and the office said they don’t know when it will be reviewed)

I’m a new student who got put in bush house south quad in a four person dorm but I can’t find any info anywhere about the dorms layout. If anyone has any pictures or dimensions or anything it would be soo so appreciated!!

I am an out of state pre-med bio student and my schedule is looking absolutely horrendous (for the class times) is this normal? I have one class till 5:30 on Wednesday and till 3 on Friday and that’s just with Bio and Chem. Am I cooked? How easy is it to switch these around?
