Nineteen Michigan universities offer ABET-accredited engineering degrees, and this page lists what they cost and the SAT scores of the students they admit.
The University of Michigan sets tuition by school and by division, and an out-of-state engineering student in his last two years pays more than MIT charges, a figure the Scorecard’s single number does not show and this page works out below the table.
Scores are given by section and the table is sorted by Math, with the three universities that report no range listed last.

Michigan Engineering Colleges by SAT Math Score
The nineteen universities below are the ones in Michigan that hold an ABET-accredited bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline. The sixteen that report scores are sorted by the midpoint of the SAT Math range, so the order can be checked from the table itself, and the three that do not are listed last in alphabetical order.
| College | SAT Reading & Writing | SAT Math | Cost of attendance | Undergraduates | Admit rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| University of Michigan | 680 to 750 | 680 to 780 | $34,654 | 34,177 | 16% |

Each range covers the middle 50% of admitted students who submitted the SAT. A quarter scored below the lower number, and the top quarter scored at or above the upper one. Being under the lower number does not rule a student out, and being just above it is not as safe as it looks.
Oakland and UM-Flint share a Math midpoint and are ordered by the Reading & Writing midpoint. Eastern Michigan and Saginaw Valley share both and are ordered alphabetically. Only universities with an ABET-accredited engineering bachelor’s degree are listed. Ferris State’s, Northern Michigan’s and Baker College’s technology degrees are accredited under a separate ABET commission and do not qualify them for the list. Lake Superior State, Lawrence Tech and Western Michigan report no SAT or ACT range to the Scorecard and are listed last. The University of Michigan’s cost figures are the university’s averages, and its engineering rates are given below the table.
Three things about that table are worth pausing on.
The University of Michigan’s out-of-state tuition in the Scorecard, $60,946, is the highest public out-of-state figure in this series, $19,760 above the next one, Maryland’s $41,186, and $17,104 above Michigan State’s. It is also an average across the university’s schools and divisions, and the engineering student’s number is higher.
Central Michigan and Eastern Michigan charge every student the same tuition, $14,760 and $16,240, in state or out, as four Illinois universities do. A New York student at Central Michigan’s engineering college pays less than a Michigan student pays at any of the three University of Michigan campuses.
Michigan State is the largest school on any page in this series so far, 40,922 undergraduates, and admits 85% of them on a Math range of 590 to 680 whose two ends sit exactly 90 points under the flagship’s.
A student can see where his Math score sits on this list in the image above.

Sixteen ranges and three blanks say who got in. The flagship’s price for a student from outside Michigan is not the number in the table, and the next section is about the number it is.
How Much Does an Out-of-State Student Pay for Engineering at the University of Michigan?
A non-resident in the University of Michigan’s College of Engineering pays $33,744 a term in his lower-division years and $37,859 a term in his upper-division years under the proposed Fall 2026 rates, $67,488 and $75,718 a year, and the Scorecard’s $60,946 is the university’s average across all of its schools and divisions.
The provost’s FY2027 tuition table sets the rates by school and by division. The table below is the engineering rates beside the rates for the College of Literature, Science and the Arts, per term and per year.
| School and division | Resident, per term | Resident, per year | Non-resident, per term | Non-resident, per year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Engineering, lower division | $10,101 | $20,202 | $33,744 | $67,488 |
| Engineering, upper division | $13,011 | $26,022 | $37,859 | $75,718 |
| LSA, lower division | $9,448 | $18,896 | $33,548 | $67,096 |
| LSA, upper division | $10,634 | $21,268 | $35,899 | $71,798 |
Read the right-hand column against the Massachusetts page. MIT’s tuition and fees are $62,396. Tufts’, the highest on that page, are $70,704. A New York student in his third year of Michigan Engineering pays $13,322 a year more than an MIT student and $5,014 more than a Tufts student, at a public university that admits 15.6% of applicants on a Math range of 680 to 780. The figures are on our page on engineering colleges in Massachusetts, and none of them rises at the upper division.
The engineering premium inside Ann Arbor is its own number. An upper-division non-resident pays $1,960 a term more in engineering than in LSA, and a resident pays $2,377 a term more, $4,754 a year. A Michigan family pays approximately $4,750 a year more for a mechanical engineering major than for a mathematics major in the building next door, and the difference is written into the rate table, not into fees.
The image above shows what a New York engineering student pays in Ann Arbor by year, and how far the Scorecard’s single figure sits to the left of both of his bars.
Take a New York student with a 740 on Math. At Michigan he is in the upper half of the admitted range, and if he is admitted to the College of Engineering his four years of tuition run $67,488, $67,488, $75,718 and $75,718. That is $286,412 before housing, food or books. At Michigan Tech he is 70 points above the ceiling and pays $42,988 a year. At Michigan State he is 60 above the ceiling and pays $43,842. At MIT, if he were admitted, he would be 40 below the floor and pay $62,396. Ann Arbor’s is the only bill on that list that goes up in junior year, and it is the only one the Scorecard understates.
The other gates in the state are the ordinary kind. Michigan State admits a first-year student to the university and not to a college, and a student who wants engineering completes a secondary admission after enrollment on a GPA computed from specified courses [VERIFY the course list and the GPA thresholds by major on engineering.msu.edu and write them here]. Michigan Tech admits 92% of applicants to a university whose students are mostly engineers, the least selective engineering-focused public in this series. Kettering puts every student into a paid co-op rotation from the first year, and Grand Valley requires co-op of its engineering majors. At those three the score is read at the door and the price does not move. On our page on engineering colleges in Maryland, the flagship’s gate was a grade a year in. Michigan’s is a bill that rises a year in.
The honest version is that the FY2027 table is labeled proposed, and the regents approve the final rates in June. The figures above are the proposed Fall 2026 rates and should be read that way. Upper division begins at 55 credits, not at the start of junior year, so a student who arrives with AP credit reaches the higher rate sooner. Michigan offers need-based aid to non-residents and this page does not model it, but the sticker is what most New York families are quoted, and the sticker for an engineering junior is $75,718.
Families reading the rate table frequently ask whether the engineering rate starts on the first day.
Does the Engineering Rate Apply From the First Year?
The engineering rate applies from the first term a student is enrolled in the College of Engineering. The college has its own lower-division rate, $10,101 a term for a resident and $33,744 for a non-resident, and both are above LSA’s lower-division rates of $9,448 and $33,548.
The upper-division rate begins at 55 credits. A student who enters with 20 credits of AP work crosses that line in the middle of his second year rather than the start of his third, and pays $37,859 a term from that point. The rate follows the credit count, not the calendar.
The flagship’s rates are its own. The degrees are what the next section lists.
Which Michigan Universities Have ABET-Accredited Engineering Schools?
Nineteen Michigan universities hold ABET-accredited engineering bachelor’s degrees, thirteen public and six private, and all nineteen are in the table above.
The University of Michigan holds engineering colleges on all three of its campuses, Ann Arbor, Dearborn and Flint, with Ford’s headquarters two miles from Dearborn. Michigan State’s College of Engineering is in East Lansing. In the Detroit area, Wayne State and Detroit Mercy are in the city, Lawrence Tech is in Southfield, Oakland is in Rochester, and Kettering is in Flint on the campus General Motors built for it, with GM’s technical center in Warren and Stellantis’s headquarters in Auburn Hills between them. In Houghton, Michigan Tech holds the state’s geological and mining engineering degrees. In Kalamazoo, Western Michigan holds aerospace and paper engineering. In West Michigan, Grand Valley, Calvin and Hope hold engineering programs within twenty miles of one another. Central Michigan is in Mount Pleasant, Saginaw Valley in University Center near Dow’s headquarters in Midland, Eastern Michigan in Ypsilanti, Andrews in Berrien Springs, and Lake Superior State in Sault Ste. Marie at the Canadian border.
Accreditation matters for a reason that is easy to miss at seventeen. Licensure as a professional engineer normally requires a degree from an ABET-accredited engineering program, and that is why Ferris State’s, Northern Michigan’s and Baker College’s engineering technology degrees do not put those schools on the list. Hillsdale, Albion, Alma, Aquinas, Adrian, Spring Arbor, Madonna and Siena Heights award no engineering degree, and Kalamazoo College’s students reach one through a three-two arrangement that finishes at another university.
Nothing on this page ranks the nineteen. The table’s order is a stated, verifiable number where one exists, and the choice among accredited programs comes down to cost, discipline and where a student’s score places him.
What If Your Scores Are Below the Range You Want?
In Michigan a student under the flagship’s floor of 680 has eighteen other accredited programs, and a student above it should price Ann Arbor by division before he prices anything else, because the number he is quoted elsewhere is $15,000 a year below the one he will pay as an engineering junior.
The gap between a 600 and Michigan’s 680 is the gap most students on this page face, and the same algebra, functions and trigonometry close it. A student at 600 is above the ceiling at six universities on the page and in the middle of Michigan State’s range, so the question for him is not whether he has an engineering school but which price he wants to pay for one. A New York applicant has sixteen ranges and a spread of out-of-state tuition from $14,760 at Central Michigan to $75,718 in an Ann Arbor engineering classroom in junior year.
The first step is finding out where the score actually is, section by section. A free diagnostic SAT gives a Math score that can be set against the table.
The Math section rewards the same handful of topics on every test date, and a student who knows which of them he is missing can close a gap of 50 to 100 points in weeks rather than months. The method is on our page on improving your SAT Math score, and an 80-point gap is inside it.
How to Read These Score Ranges
Every range on this page covers the middle 50% of admitted students who submitted the SAT. The lower number is the 25th percentile and the upper number is the 75th, so a quarter of admitted students scored at or above it.
The Scorecard’s tuition figure is one number per university. A university that charges by school and by division can sit $15,000 a year above that number for the student this page is about, and the only way to know is to read the university’s own rate table. The section above does that for Ann Arbor.
Because most colleges are now test-optional, the ranges that are published describe only the students who chose to submit at all. Students with strong scores submit and students with weak ones don’t, so a published range sits higher than the range for everyone who was actually admitted. More on what SAT score you need for college and on test-optional colleges.
Should You Take the ACT Instead?
Michigan administers the SAT to every public-school junior, and twenty-five Michigan institutions report an SAT range against twenty-one for the ACT, so most Michigan applicants already hold an SAT score.
All nineteen universities on this page accept either test, and a student should take whichever he scores higher on. A student from outside Michigan who holds an ACT should convert it before reading the table.
