The application process is generally conducted during specific times throughout the year when funds are available for distribution; however, some organizations do provide continuous funding throughout the academic year or offer scholarships that are available at any time during enrollment at UofM as long as you meet their requirements and continue meeting them each term after initial receipt of funding (i.e., maintaining a minimum GPA).
