Michigan Institute of Masonry Scholarship

Due Date: April 25, 2025

The Masonry Institute of Michigan (MIM) since 1976 has contributed to a Scholarship Fund for the College of Architecture at Lawrence Technological University (LTU) in Southfield. In 2007, The MIM Board of Trustees decided to extend the awarding of scholarships each to include other Colleges of Architecture, Construction Management, and Civil/Construction Engineering. To accomplish this endeavor, the MIM Scholarship Foundation was established in May 2001 for the purpose of raising funds for student scholarships. In 2023, the MIM Scholarship Foundation made the decision to increase the award amount to $5000.
