"The class is about the same size as last year's freshman class-approximately 3,000 students. Of these students, about 97 per cent live in Michigan." "Each year since 1957, approximately 90 per cent of the members of freshman classes have ranked in the top one-half of their high school classes, and 75 per cent were in the top quarter of their classes," Dean Gilden added. Almost 15,000 students are enrolled at the University this fall. Of this number, 11,700 are undergraduates and 3,300 are graduate students. The Office of Admissions received 7,208 new applications for admission for the fall semester.
