Colleges are everywhere in this vast state, and many have consistently earned high grades from reviewers. The University of Michigan's main campus in Ann Arbor is one of those schools. This is one of the top-ranked public universities in the world, with more than 200 degree programs offered through 11 undergraduate schools and colleges. Student enrollment is about 40,000 and UM claims to have the largest alumni base in the world, with over 400,000, living alumni. The college plays in the Big Ten confrence, with their Wolverines earning plenty of titles throughout the years. A rolling admissions program is offered but due to the popularity of the school, early application is suggested.

Michigan is certainly full of large universities but boasts many fine small colleges as well. The Presbyterian-founded Alma College is continuously touted by college reviewers for its commitment to fostering social responsibility and public service and is often listed among the top colleges for science. The school's pretty 100-acre campus is located in the middle of the Lower Peninsula, and the college holds fast to its Scottish roots, which is evident in its kilted marching band, official school tartan and annual the Scottish Games festival.
