Dear piku9290,

Cost varies by school as tuition, fees, and living expenses are not the same from program to program. This type of information is usually accessible on the website for each program, so you should be able to see what the potential cost will be prior to applying to a school. Scholarship awards are more rare than an admission offer, so it is not something to expect. Likewise, most scholarships are for only a portion of tuition and not the full amount. When applying to schools, the best strategy is to ensure you can pay for the entire cost before applying and then hoping for the best in terms of receiving a scholarship award. Schools also vary on their policy of awarding scholarships to international students, so that is something to research before applying as well. Loans from a US financial institution generally require a co-signer who is a US citizen, so you will want to research funding options from your home country. For more information on funding an MBA, you might check out www.mba.com.

Good luck,
Lisa
