SMU Cox School of Business offers
MBA scholarships each year based on individual merit and achievement.
Merit Scholarships
Merit scholarships are awarded each year based on
individual merit and achievement. Recipients are selected on the basis of
demonstrated academic achievement, performance on the GMAT, professional
experience experience, and leadership potential. All candidates who apply by March 5 (Round 3
deadline) are automatically considered for merit scholarships.
Most students awarded merit scholarships meet or
exceed the class averages for work experience, GMAT, and academic
performance.
Scholarships are awarded for the entire two-year
period, subject to satisfactory academic performance. Candidates are evaluated
and awarded during the admission process. To be eligible, candidates must
submit their application, including all pieces (transcripts, GMAT, TOEFL,
essays, etc.), by the scholarship deadline of March 5, 2014 (Round 3 deadline).
We strongly encourage students to apply in Round 1 or Round 2 if possible.
The Cox School of Business is proud to partner
with Forte Foundation to continue to increase the number of
women pursuing graduate business education. We offer a variety of
merit-based scholarship awards to admitted female students which qualify them
to be named as Forte Fellows and become part of an exclusive
group of top future female business leaders. All female candidates who
apply by the Round 3 (March 5, 2014) deadline are automatically
considered for Forte Fellows.
