Scholarships
At Gies College of Business, we are committed to breaking down barriers and making high-quality business education affordable and accessible to as many learners as possible.
To support this, we provide a limited number of scholarships each year, covering partial tuition, to learners who enhance the diversity of the incoming cohort through their academic, professional, and/or lived experiences. To be considered for a scholarship, choose “Yes” at the “Financial Aid” section of your Graduate College application and then complete the scholarship acknowledgment. The scholarship acknowledgment must be received agreed to within the application for consideration of a scholarship.
*Please note that we only offer partial tuition scholarships and are unable to provide teaching, research, or graduate assistant jobs covering full tuition and fees.
