Financial Aid Resources

Finding financing for your MBA is just as important as finding the right school. But there are many financial aid resources that can help you find funding in the form of loans, grants, fellowships and scholarships.

The Riordan Fellows Program

The Riordan Fellows Program targets current undergraduate students (juniors and seniors) and recent graduates (up to 4 years post-baccalaureate) who are considering graduate education in business management. Its core purpose is to educate, prepare, and motivate these individuals to competitively apply and succeed in a top MBA program and a career in management.
