    Hi, What a wonderful review! But I have a concern, many people say that Ann Arbor is not safe and crimes occur so often, is that true? Is Ann Arbor safe?

    • @MaddyKim
      @MaddyKim  Před 3 lety +5

      From my experience, Ann Arbor has been very safe! Sure, there is an occasional break into a house in the area, in which you get a notification, but overall I feel very safe. There are blue lights all around campus that when pressed alert authorities, so I have never felt in danger or scared.

    Wait a sec, so youre on summer break from the end of april to beginning of september?

    • @MaddyKim
      @MaddyKim  Před 3 lety +1

      Pretty much! Our winter break is very short (like 2.5 weeks?) compared to other universities. Our Thanksgiving break is only Wed-Sun. This year was different bc covid and we had like 2 months of break (basically thanksgiving to MLK day), and there won't be a spring break, but we are still ending in April.

    • @ashleykim8044
      @ashleykim8044 Před 3 lety

      our summer break is longer than other colleges because umich is a trimester school rather than the typical quarter/regular semester. umich combines spring and summer into one semester
