UM-Dearborn is proud to be one of 10 of the 15 public universities in Michigan that are part of the Michigan Assured Admission Pact (MAAP). MAAP universities believe that a uniform and widely-communicated standard for admission will reduce the uncertainty and anxiety that are often part of the college admission process and enable students to realize their full educational potential. Students who meet the eligibility requirements (High School GPA of a 3.0 or higher) will be guaranteed admission to all of the participating colleges. While UM-Dearborn has historically considered and admitted students with a 3.0 GPA, we are pleased to provide this added level of insight and transparency to our process.

We continue to provide support and an affordable option for high school students looking to take dual enrollment courses at UM-Dearborn. Admitted Dual Enrollment students will receive a Dual Enrollment scholarship that automatically covers 50% of tuition and fees. Our Dual Enrollment students earn college credit and are afforded all of the same resources and privileges as degree-seeking students.

Banson NYC Paris Week Adventure
We are excited to offer our fifth Banson NYC Paris Week Adventure in November 2024. The program is designed for high school and college students to either come on their own, with a friend or with a relative (parents, siblings, aunts and grandmothers are welcome!). The seven-day experience will allow participants to see what the French fashion scene is all about. The students will stay at a deluxe hotel in Paris's City Centre. Each morning the group will be picked up at the hotel by a Banson NYC representative. From there we will depart for our activities of the day. The adventure will be packed with industry visits, a fashion show at Galeries Lafayette, museum visits, a trip to the YSL Museum and a guided tour of Musee du Parfum Fragonard (a French private perfume museum). We accept applications on a first come, first served basis with a maximum of 20 participants.
The cost is $2200.00 per participant (quad hotel accommodations) or $2500.00 per per participant (double hotel accommodations).
