Foundation awards 140 MBA students with thousands of dollars in scholarships
Posted on 9/1/2010
Minority students who demonstrate financial need and academic promise may have many tuition assistance opportunities. A growing number of government programs and private organizations are launching scholarships specifically for minorities who wish to attend college.
For example, the National Society of Hispanic MBA's (NSHMBA) recently announced that it will award $523,125 in financial aid to students this academic year. The organization has chosen more than 140 learners from across the country to receive tuition assistance packages ranging from $2,500 for part-time enrollment to $10,000 for full-time students.
"It is a terrible loss to companies - and society as whole - when it is never shown the right person for the job because that person is unable to hurdle the obstacle of financing a degree," said Steve Ramos, NSHMBA interim CEO. "We're extremely excited to again be doing what we do so very well, and that's give money to deserving students who are bettering themselves educationally."
Scholarships are given based on academic achievement, work experience, financial need, personal statements of goals and aspirations, community service, letters of recommendation and NSHMBA ambassadorship.
