Scholarships and Grants Back to Top Scholarships and grants are financial aid that you do not have to repay. A major source of scholarships for graduate business students is the school itself. Some competitive scholarships, grants, fellowships, and tuition waivers or reductions are not based on financial need but on some specific selection criteria. In addition to tuition, fees, and supplies, awards may include living stipends. For detailed information regarding scholarships offered by the schools of your choice as well the criteria used to award them, contact the admissions counselors directly.
Independent foundations are another important source of scholarship funds.
Many foundations offer scholarships to students who meet certain specific eligibility criteria. Lists of these scholarships are published in books that may be found in your local library. There are also an abundance of sites on the Internet. For a list of some of these sites, go to Use Additional Resources . You can also borrow money to finance the direct and indirect costs of your education.
