Eligibility
Scholarship awards are available for full-time and part-time MBA, MSA, and MS-STH students for fall and spring semesters only. Students admitted for the summer sessions will have their scholarship application reviewed with fall semester applications (deadlines still applicable). Summer school is not included in scholarship awards. Scholarships are awarded based on financial need and academic merit and can be for one semester or for the full program.
An award of one of the three Graduate Scholarships does NOT make you ineligible to receive a scholarship that is administered through the College of Business Scholarship Program. It is possible to receive multiple scholarships in one semester, but the combined award will not exceed the full cost of the semester’s tuition cost.
