Business is the subject where the word "scholarship" is used most loosely. Many business schools advertise partial discounts that still leave most of the fee to pay, so the first job is to separate those from awards that fund the whole degree. Our guide to what funding labels really mean shows how to read an offer.
Full funding for a business or economics master's mostly comes from awards that are open to every subject. Chevening pays for a one-year master's at any UK university, Erasmus Mundus runs joint degrees in economics and management across Europe, and France's Eiffel scholarship names economics and management among its priority fields. These awards weigh leadership and career plans heavily, so a few years of work experience strengthen an application.
An MBA is the hardest business degree to fund. Knight-Hennessy Scholars is the exception on our list: it covers any full-time Stanford graduate degree, the MBA included.
For undergraduates, the best value is in American colleges that meet full need for international students. Your family's income decides what you pay, and at the most generous colleges families below set thresholds pay nothing at all. Our guide to US financial aid for international students explains how it works.
