In the fall of 2018, Wojcik began attending the University of Michigan, joining the Michigan Wolverines women's gymnastics team. In her collegiate debut, she broke the school record of the highest all-around score (39.625) in a college debut with a 39.625; Wojcik also won three event titles (vault, bars and beam) at the same meet. She was named the WCGA Northeast Regional Gymnast of the Year and the Big Ten Freshman of the Year; she was named a two-time All-American for her freshman season: first team on balance beam, second team in the all-around.
