The University of Michigan is poised to buy a roughly 140-acre campus from Concordia University Ann Arbor for $60 million, setting up a Thursday board vote on the acquisition. CUAA, which opted to wind down most programs in 2024, would offer the remaining academic offerings at a separate campus about three miles away if the sale proceeds. U-M CFO Robert Hewlett recommended the purchase, expected to close by late June subject to due diligence and environmental review. The deal would give U-M new administration buildings, classrooms, residence halls, athletic facilities, and a historic manor and chapel. Ann Arbor city council members have opposed the sale, while U-M says it will evaluate how the site supports long-term educational, research, and community priorities consistent with its mission.
