MBA Scholarships

Our MBA Scholarship schemes recognise high-quality candidates who share our Public Value ethos and ambitions and want to take the next step in their career by studying for their MBA at Cardiff Business School.

Whether you’re looking to study full-time or part-time, the flagship Cardiff MBA or one of our thematic programmes, and whether you’re self-funded or supported by your employer, you’ll be eligible for a £10,000 scholarship.

We’ve extended this to include organisations investing in their workforce by supporting them to study an MBA. For the part-time programme, the scholarship will be split equally across the 2 years of study.

The following full terms and conditions apply for this scholarship:

1. Scholarships are available to applicants who meet the terms of their offer and enrol on any Cardiff University MBA programme.
2. Scholarships will be awarded in the form of an automatic tuition fee discount and cannot be used in place of any required deposit. No cash alternative is available.
3. Where a student is part-funded by their employer, the scholarship/discount will be split equally between the 2 paying parties in direct proportion to how the fees are being paid. If you have funding arrangements not covered here, please contact MBA-Enquiries@cardiff.ac.uk to discuss your individual circumstances.
4. Scholarships are for  autumn semester entry. Any requests to defer entry and receipt of the scholarship will need to be done via direct discussion with the school.
5. Applicants who are in receipt of any variation of the MBA scholarships are not eligible for any other University bursaries or scholarships.
6. Self-funded students (i.e. those not being supported by employers) are considered those who are not in receipt of funding from external bodies such as local Government, charities or private organisations. Anyone in receipt of such funding is not eligible for the scholarship. This excludes postgraduate loans from the UK Government and postgraduate loans and bursaries from the Welsh Government.
7. If you are an international student, you must satisfy all financial requirements as part of your visa application for study in the UK. You should not be solely relying on receiving the Cardiff University MBA Public Value Scholarship to meet the UKVI financial requirements. Please see UKVI financial requirements for visa applications for further information.
8. Please ensure that you have left sufficient time for your application and supporting documents to be reviewed and processed before the acceptance deadline noted above. This can take up to 10 working days. Please contact the Admissions Office should you have any problems submitting your application or documents.
