Every gift makes a difference.
Your gift makes it possible for admitted students to enroll and thrive at the college. Your gifts also power college priorities—like access, engaged learning, and academic excellence. Funds that support these priorities ensure that LSA can furnish students from all walks of life with the knowledge, competence, and support to become the changemakers the world needs; foster a culture of well-being that inspires and challenges all in our community to do their best work; and drive innovation and discovery through liberal arts and sciences collaboration.
Join our donor community with a gift today!
We rely on the generous support of alumni, friends, parents, and donors like you. It truly takes a community to support LSA students from their first semester, through graduation, and beyond. We have an ambitious goal of 10,000 donors this year, and you can help us reach it! Make a gift before June 30, and make an impact on the lives of students and LSA programs.
Donors: 9,012 / 10,000
Here are a few important ways to support students today:
LSA Fund for Need-based Student Scholarships
Your donation to the LSA scholarship fund makes it possible for engaged, high-achieving students to pursue their higher education goals. This fund is a top priority because it provides access to all facets of an LSA education, including tuition and room and board, as well as opportunities for engaged-learning experiences. This is more critical than ever so that all of our students graduate with all the advantages of a degree from the University of Michigan.
LSA Fund for Student Well-being
Your support helps address the needs of LSA students across all dimensions of well-being. This starts with college-wide initiatives, including dedicated staff that are bringing about systems-level change. Student Mental Health and Well-Being Advocates are planning and implementing student supports while acting as liaisons between LSA and campus-wide initiatives to maximize the availability of services LSA students can access. The college is building capacity and improving availability of resources that focus on the public health principles of protecting, promoting, and preventing. Gifts of all sizes to this fund support a culture where all students in our community can thrive in their mental health and well-being.
LSA Opportunity Hub Student Journey Fund
Your gift supports students' journey through the LSA Opportunity Hub including career coaching, mentoring, workshops, and other programs to prepare them for professional life after college. Learn more about the Opportunity Hub:
Other important ways your giving can make a difference:
Dean’s Special Initiatives Fund
Gifts to this fund are a powerful investment in the leadership and vision of the college. They support a wide-range of LSA priorities: advancing game-changing research; increasing access; developing innovative programs and pedagogy; and providing a supportive environment where students can thrive in their well-being and academic success. Your support will drive creativity, connect our rich past to a boundless and bright future, and ensure that LSA’s strong legacy of exploration endures.
LSA First Gen Student Scholars Fund
Gifts to this fund will be used to provide need-based scholarship support for LSA first-generation college students. As each new LSA scholar explores, grows and develops, they help shape the character of our institution, which strengthens LSA’s contribution to the world. As the citizens and professionals of tomorrow, these individuals will educate future generations, shape public policy, make new discoveries in every field, and continue the important work of building human society—making the real value of their scholarship support not just what they accomplish during their time at Michigan, but also what they contribute to their communities and the world over the course of their lifetimes.
LSA Fund for Merit-based Student Support
This fund provides merit-based scholarship support to undergraduate students in LSA. Gifts for scholarship support provide the resources for the college to attract engaged, high-achieving students who will energize the campus with their curiosity and the unique perspectives they offer.
