Need-based scholarships (called fellowships at HBS) help bring a diversity of experiences and perspectives to the classroom and make it possible for recipients to pursue career paths based on interest and potential impact rather than student debt.

As our annual fund, the HBS Fund supports core priorities and new initiatives, and donors have the option to give specifically to financial aid.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Some donors prefer to set up their own fellowship fund, which they can designate for students with a specific background or interest. Individual named funds require a minimum gift: $250,000 for current-use and $500,000 for endowment. To learn more, please call 617.495.6881 (toll free: 877.448.3864) or email us.
