The Engineering Student Critical Needs Fund provides resources to students with unanticipated, immediate financial needs, from tuition assistance to living expenses to technology purchases.
“When I was accepted to U‑M, I knew I would need to work part-time jobs in order to support my education expenses. However, when my father passed away, working only part time was no longer sustainable enough for me to finish school since he was the sole provider for our family and I also had a younger sibling going to college. The support I received from the Engineering Student Critical Needs Fund allowed me to continue taking classes and pay for my housing. Without this assistance, I would not have been able to focus on my studies and do well in school. Your generosity has positively changed the outcome of my future.”
