The rich discussions and debates in the MBA classroom, which are essential to HBS’s peer-to-peer learning model, depend on bringing together students representing a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives. The School provides financial assistance to support these women and men along their journeys from the classroom to the start of their careers as leaders who will make a difference in the world.

The most talented students, regardless of their means, are given the opportunity to attend HBS through need-based scholarships, typically called fellowships at HBS. The School also provides aid for MBA students’ summer career explorations and, upon graduation, to enable them to pursue their passions in sectors where the compensation is lower than is typical for an HBS graduate.

Alumni and friends of the School who support fellowships through annual gifts to the HBS Fund, as well as donors who have established more than 700 named fellowship funds, have had a direct and deep impact on the lives of thousands of students. Such generosity has a tremendous ripple effect as the beneficiaries—and all who have learned with and from them—go out into the world and make a positive difference in their careers, families, and society, ensuring business to be a force for good.
