Question Re: grayshirting
So we keep hearing about greyshirts and who is going to be one and how much it's going to cost them to go to Michigan for a semester and pay for it themselves out of pocket. So my question is in two parts.
One: Can they work out with the team the first semester they are on campus? Are then then treated as a walk-on with all the benefits of the training table but not benefits of tuition/room&board?
Two: If they decided they couldn't afford it, what are the chances they would be able to just enroll in the spring semester?

Second - I suppose it is possible, I have also heard the possibility of going to a nearby CC which would be cheaper and Credits from MI schools are easy (easier at least) to transfer into M.

If they can't work out with the team, it seems like it may be idea for them to not enroll until after the first of the year.

Some people made this kind of statement and they're 100% serious. Plus, sometimes it's hard to tell sarcasm on the internet without /s.

That ties together all the thoughts about being part time and everything else. So they could enroll to get ON campus and have access to the facilities and everything but not start their 5 years of eligibility until they are actually full time on scholarship for the Winter (misspoke earlier with Spring)
So they would NOT be on the hook for the full tuition the first semester, but if they wanted, and they were not Michigan residents, they could move up and start the clock on when the would be able to apply for Michigan resident status.

We talked about this in the diary for the recruiting class and most had indicated you'd enroll at WCCC to make sure the credits transfer (and not incur a massive cost esp if student is from out of state) and then enroll at UM in January 2017.
I guess the other option is to be a part time student at UM itself in fall 2016.
