ESMT’s part-time MBA scholarships have been designed to help encourage you to bring your continued professional development goals to reality. With scholarship options to fit all profiles, outstanding part-time MBA applicants are welcome at ESMT Berlin.
Scholarships are allocated based on academic excellence, personal and professional achievement, leadership potential, and superior interpersonal skills. Only self-funded part-time MBA candidates are eligible and all scholarships apply solely to tuition fees.
You will apply for a scholarship during your application to the part-time MBA program. There are two types of scholarships available:

Note that multiple automatic scholarships can be combined with only one application-driven scholarship.
