Michigan Rehabilitation Services

Michigan Rehabilitation Services (MRS) is an arm of the Michigan Department of Career Development, designed to provide rehabilitative services to vocationally handicapped or impaired individuals.

Any person with an impairment such as an amputation, a cardiac condition, speech problems, deafness, blindness, orthopedic involvements, or epilepsy, can make application for service through Michigan Rehabilitation Services.

All services provided are individually planned to meet the established need and could include, for example: tuition, fees, books, prosthetic devices, maintenance, or other services that would be required for the completion of a rehabilitative program.

A student who feels that vocational rehabilitation services are needed may make inquiry and application for assistance by contacting the office of Michigan Rehabilitation Services in the student’s home area.

Army ROTC Scholarships

ROTC offers a variety of scholarships to the students of CMU. Scholarships differ primarily in the length of time in which the recipient receives the financial assistance. The Army ROTC scholarship program includes a financial benefit package for a period of four, three, and two years. Scholarships are awarded on a competitive basis to the most outstanding applicants, each of whom must: be of good moral character, be a U.S. citizen, be medically qualified, be not more than 31 years of age at graduation, pass the Army fitness test, have no civil convictions (other than minor traffic violations), have a GPA of at least 2.5 (4.0 scale), and possess scholar, athlete, and leader attributes.

Each scholarship pays for college tuition, laboratory fees, on campus educational fees, and a standard amount for the purchase of textbooks, classroom supplies, and equipment. Army ROTC Scholarship winners also receive a tax–free subsistence allowance of $420 per month for each school year that the scholarship is in effect.
