Common Questions

Has University of Michigan released its 2026-27 supplemental essays?

Not confirmed yet. As of September 26, 2026, U-M Undergraduate Admissions: Essay Questions (unlabeled) does not show prompts labeled for 2026-27. Applicants can see the current prompts inside the Common App after adding Michigan to their list, and this page will list them once the college posts them.

Why not show last year's Michigan prompts?

Colleges change prompts and word limits from year to year. Showing last year’s prompts as this year’s would send students to the wrong target.
