Scholarships and Awards

LSA Scholarships
Scholarships to continuing undergraduates in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA) are funded by gifts to the College of LSA. These gifts include donations to the LSA Annual Fund for Student Support, scholarship endowments, bequests and annual gifts from donors. Each year nearly 400 students receive a College of Literature, Science, and the Arts Undergraduate Scholarship, funded from one or more of our scholarship accounts.
College Eligibility. Applicants must be continuing students (completed two academic terms in LSA) pursuing a degree program in LSA and enrolled for at least 12 credit hours during the fall and winter 2008-09 academic year.
Monetary Award. The LSA Undergraduate Scholarship monetary award is determined based on your scholarship application and information in your financial aid package from the University of Michigan, Office of Financial Aid. The LSA Scholarship Office has access to each applicant’s financial aid package to establish eligibility and the scholarship amount. Please note that these scholarships are not awarded or administered by the Office of Financial Aid. Monetary awards have ranged from $500 to $5,000 for the fall and winter terms. An award in one year does not guarantee continuation of the LSA Undergraduate Scholarship in subsequent years.
To be Considered. Complete and submit the LSA Scholarship Application by the May 21, 2008 deadline. Cite all of your applicable characteristics, such as professional interests, future career plans, etc. in the “Donor Criteria" section. (Some scholarships are reserved for students who meet restricted criteria established by individual donors.) Do not be concerned if you do not meet the specific “Donor Criteria” all applicants will be considered for “Unrestricted Scholarships” that do have restricted donor criteria.
