Michigan, without question!

Your first job out of school will most likely give you an idea of what you probably don't want to do for the rest of your life. If that is not the case for you, fantastic! But for many it means back to Grad School, with an eye on more of what you might want to do. If that happens you want the strongest academic record from the most powerful institution on your resume - and that means Michigan (Plus a strong work resume post undergrad). Oh, BTW, Michigan is perennially top 10-20 in a whole host of grad programs. Most notably their Law school. Poli Sci and business are pretty good lead in Undergrad programs for Law.

It sounds like you separated completely from military service. If not you might consider banking that GI bill for Grad School. If you are still in the Guard (or want to get back into the Guard) most states will pay undergrad tuition at any state school for any guardsman in good standing. Virginia, Illinois, Indiana, Texas come to my. I would bet Michigan does the same.

You'll be done before you know it. Good luck. When you turn around I think you will be pleased at being a Michigan grad and the opportunities you will be presented with.
