/ Application Eligibility and Requirements
Eligibility
The Urban Technology degree is open to 2023 (and beyond) high school graduates. While Urban Technology is not available as a dual-degree option, a minor is incorporated, so you will explore a complementary discipline in-depth during your time as a Wolverine.
Requirements
Your application will be reviewed both by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions and the faculty of the Urban Technology degree. We are seeking problem solvers with an interest in people-driven solutions that address urban challenges such as climate change, equitable housing, transportation efficiency, and more. We want to enroll students who are entrepreneurial and view technology from a variety of perspectives.
- Understand U-M’s undergraduate admissions process (and preview the essay questions!) requirements and deadlines.
- Review the selection process.
- Be prepared to pay the $75 application fee or request a fee waiver.
No portfolio is required to apply to the Urban Technology degree.
/ How to Apply
Though it may seem a little counterintuitive, you will complete the Fall 2023 application in order to start at U-M as an Urban Technology major in Winter 2024. Once your completed application is submitted, the Office of Undergraduate Admissions will convert your application to Winter 2024. We accept the Common App.
