ALL APPLICANTS - Start Here

BEFORE BEGINNING AN APPLICATION...

1. All applicants should join the FLAS Updates email group in order to receive announcements and information related to upcoming deadlines and application components. This group is self-joinable for those with U-M uniqname. For step by step instructions, see the Advising page.

2. All applicants should attend an information session if possible.

3. All applicants should confirm that the language level in which they plan to enroll will be offered during the academic year or that an appropriate summer program is available BEFORE submitting an application.

4. All applicants should review the Application Instructions and Application Materials pages.

5. Applicants without a current University of Michigan uniqname and Kerberos password will first need to setup a U-M Friend account to login to the International Institute Fellowships & Grants portal. A U-M Friend Account is free of charge to users and requires a valid non-UM email address. If you have already submitted your admission application to a Rackham graduate program, you should have received an email with your UMID and instructions on how to create a U-M Friend Account.

For step by step instructions on how to get to the online FLAS application, see the Application Instructions page.

After completing the above, applicants should then begin an Online Application here.
