University of Michigan

Michigan's funding is best understood by school, because the university is large enough that each school runs its own awards. The records below skew toward the graduate and health sciences side, which is where most of Michigan's funded positions sit: doctoral students in the sciences are supported through department fellowships and research assistantships, and the medical school runs its own fellowship and training grant system. A funded offer at Michigan usually names its funding source in the admission letter.

International undergraduates meet a different and more limited picture. Michigan offers merit scholarships for international students, but institutional aid for bachelor's students from abroad is far smaller than the funding available to graduate students, so most international undergraduates plan around a mix of university merit awards and outside scholarships. The summer research and fellowship listings below give a sense of how competitive the funded undergraduate opportunities are.

Because the rows here span so many schools, the provider line is the fastest way to sort them. Each card links to the Michigan office or department that runs the award, and that page carries the current call and deadline, since fellowship rounds at Michigan are announced by each unit rather than on one central calendar.
