Description:
This all expenses paid program will bring talented undergraduate and MA
students to Ann Arbor for a 2-week workshop to help you prepare to apply to a
PhD in Linguistics, and to give you an overview of the opportunities and
resources available for students at the University of Michigan, especially in
Linguistics.  

The program may be held entirely remotely for a second time this year,
depending on public health guidance from the State of Michigan and the
University of Michigan.

You will meet with faculty and PhD students to talk about research in
linguistics, and will have the opportunity to work on your own research
project under the guidance of U-M Linguistics faculty.  The fellowship will
also include a graduate application workshop and gatherings with faculty and
current graduate students from Linguistics and other disciplines.

The application deadline is Monday, February 22, 2021.  See link for
application materials that you should submit, including statements and two
letters of recommendation.  Send this flyer right away to faculty you think
could recommend you, so that they already know you are interested in applying.

Selected applicants will receive a $1,000 stipend for their participation in
the program.  If the program is held in person again this year (see link for
details), then your round trip travel, lodging, and on-campus meals will also
