What scholarships are available for students applying to ISB PGP YL?

For students applying to the ISB PGP Young Leaders Program (YLP), there are several scholarships available that can significantly reduce the financial burden of pursuing the program. Here's an overview:

• ISB Merit Scholarships: These scholarships are awarded to exceptional students based on academic performance, leadership qualities, and professional achievements. Applicants with outstanding profiles during the selection process are automatically considered.
• Need-based Scholarships: ISB offers financial assistance to students who demonstrate a genuine need for support. The amount awarded is determined after evaluating the applicant's financial background.
• Corporate Scholarships: ISB collaborates with corporate sponsors who fund scholarships for specific criteria. These are often tied to the sponsor's values or priorities, such as promoting diversity or supporting candidates from specific industries.
• Diversity Scholarships: To encourage diversity in the classroom, ISB provides scholarships to candidates from unique professional, geographical, or cultural backgrounds. This helps create a more inclusive and dynamic learning environment.
• Alumni Funded Scholarships: ISB alumni also contribute to funding scholarships for deserving candidates. These scholarships are awarded to students who exhibit exceptional potential and commitment to contributing to the ISB community.
• External Scholarships: While not directly offered by ISB, students can also explore external funding opportunities such as government-sponsored scholarships or private organizations that support higher education.

The ISB YLP process itself offers a partial scholarship as a commitment reward for admitted candidates who complete the pre-PGP requirements successfully.

Remember, many scholarships require strong essays and applications, so focus on presenting a compelling case for why you deserve the support.
