10.7.1 Alumni Student Recruitment

The Alumni Student Recruitment (ASR) program is a partnership between the Alumni Association and the University.

See the Alumni Student Recruitment page on the AAUM site for more info.

Here’s an example of a response from an actual student who had talked to an ASR rep:

I wanted to thank you for taking the time to talk with me about the University of Michigan.

I enjoyed talking with you about your experiences on campus. It was clear to me that your passions for the Maize and Blue still run deep. After our conversation, as I drove home, I reflected on our discussion and really admire the excitement and dedication you have for your alma mater.

Further, after our discussion, it reinforced to me that the University of Michigan was the school for me.

When I read your email saying that you had checked in with Admissions and gave me a name (Delphine) to contact in order to ensure the school understood that Michigan was my top-choice school, I jumped at the chance.

I wrote her a mail this evening, and plan on following up to ensure that the school realizes how badly I want to be a Wolverine.

Thank you for the time you spent with me, for the motivation you gave me, and for the contact you provided me with. I greatly appreciate each of them, and am hoping to see you soon as a confirmed University of Michigan admitted student.

Go Blue!

Couldn’t make up stuff like this if we tried!
