big thinkers scholarship

Founded in 2013, the Big Thinkers Scholarship is a student-funded, need-based endowed scholarship – one of the first of its kind. As members of MUSIC Matters, we understand the value of our experience here at U of M. Our $50,000 endowment allows students to share in this tradition regardless of their financial situation. With the ever-growing issue of college affordability, we are confident that our scholarship makes a true difference on campus.

The 2025-2026 application for the Big Thinkers Scholarship, conducted through the U-M Office of Financial Aid, is due on January 31st, 2025 at 5:00 pm. The application for the Big Thinkers Scholarship is available HERE.
