Scholarships
Generous scholarships are available to support your full-time study for an MBA at Melbourne Business School (MBS). All full-time MBA students are automatically considered for scholarship support – when you are accepted into the MBA program, we will let you know of any scholarship support and if additional documentation is required.
Competition for scholarship support is intense – you should not apply for the full-time MBA program unless you are able to be entirely self-funding.
Additional external scholarships, grants and government funding may be available in Australia and your home country.
