Financial Aid
We believe that talent and potential, not financial circumstances, should determine your ability to attend ISB. Our comprehensive financial support ensures that promising leaders can access world-class business education. Each year, approximately 25% of our PGP students receive financial support. For those with significant financial needs, we offer full tuition aid covering on-campus expenses.
Our scholarship offerings span nine categories, including Merit, Need-Cum-Merit, Merit-by-Diversity, Armed Forces Scholarship and AIESEC. In addition, our generous donors fund 10 categories based on Merit, Need and Diversity. We also offer scholarships to graduates from social impact startups and NGOs returning to the public or government sectors.
