Scholarships

The Evening & Weekend Program offers MBA scholarships to entering students in the form of both need- and merit-based awards. 

Applicants may need to submit additional information to be considered for certain scholarships or fellowships. Funding will be awarded to students at the time of admission based on the strength of the student's application. 

Additional merit awards are also available for continuing students for subsequent years of study.

Below are examples of just some of the scholarships offered to students in recent academic years.

Dean's Scholarships  

Dean’s scholarships are awarded to students based on demonstrated leadership and the overall strength of the admissions application. Applicants indicate on their application if they want to be considered for this scholarship.

The Berkeley Haas Equity Scholarships are awarded solely to a selected group of SF National Black Fellows who most exemplify the Fellowship selection criteria.
