The Miss Michigan USA competition is the pageant that selects the representative for the state of Michigan in the Miss USA pageant.

Michigan is recognized by Pageant Almanac's rating system as being within the top 15 states in terms of Miss USA success. Their first Miss USA victory was in 1990, and notable because Carole Gist was the first African-American to win the title. Following in her footsteps, Kenya Moore, also African-American, won the title in 1993.

Michigan is one of only twelve states to have had more than one Miss USA and has had the ninth highest number of Semi-finalists. They have not, however, been successful in gaining other awards.
