Scholarships / Fellowships

Does anyone have good information about scholarships or other programs to help fund MBA studies? I have searched many scholarship websites and most of them cater to undergraduate students. I have read that there are competitions for case studies, dissertation writing, or other business school achievements. Perhaps we can start a thread where people post information and links to scholarships, fellowships, grants, and other ways to find an MBA education.

I will start the discussion with one of the common scholarships for international students. The Flubright scholarship is for U.S. students studying abroad and foreign students who want to study in the U.S.

Scholarships (especially merit-based ones) are notoriously hard to find for MBA programs, compared to other graduate-level courses. I think that this is because the programs have become so competitive that they are almost commodities, and can be best looked at as investments on the part of the students.

The best thing to do is to inquire with the financial aid department at the program you got accepted to. They can help you find funding that applies to you. Also check into organizations (cultural and otherwise) that might be applicable. Under-represented racial and cultural groups, and occasionally under-represented professional groups, can be of help.

Big thing here is to do a bit of research, start with your community and Google and move outward. Anybody with questions about their specific situation should post them here.
