This event is a department funded opportunity to explore graduate education at the University of Michigan. Invited participants will take part in an admissions workshop, get acquainted with area studies resources such as the U-M Asia Library and International Institute, meet with world-renowned U-M faculty and current graduate students, and learn about fellowships and other resources offered by the Rackham Graduate School. During preview weekend, students will learn about:

the admissions process
fully-funded graduate programs
developing a research project
advanced language training
selecting a faculty advisor
what graduate school is like and how it all works

To qualify for this program, you must also meet one or more of the following criteria: 1) come from an educational, cultural, or geographic background that is underrepresented in graduate study in Asian studies; 2) have demonstrated a sustained commitment to diversity in the academic, professional, or civic realm, specifically efforts in the U.S to reduce social, educational, or economic disparities based on race, ethnicity, or gender, or to improve race relations in the U.S.; 3) have experienced financial hardship as a result of family economic circumstances; 4) are a first generation U.S. citizen or are the first generation in your family to graduate from a four-year college or university.
