Scholarships of $10,000 and more

The City Year/Kelley MBA Scholarship awards at least $10,000 each year for City Year applicants toward tuition and fees for the Full-Time Master of Business Administration program. The scholarship is renewable for each year of the 2-year program, for a total minimum scholarship of $20,000.

Applicants will be considered for additional merit-based awards depending on the strength of their application.
