Financial Assistance
The UNI MBA program offers a number of graduate assistantships for full-time students. These assistantships require approximately 15-20 hours of work per week, with each student generally assigned to one or more faculty members to help with research or other projects. These awards provide an avenue for students to enrich their educational experience through close work with faculty members; sometimes even producing join publications. To be eligible for a graduate assistantship, the MBA admission decision must be made before February 15 of the year in which the student wishes to enroll.

Application forms for graduate assistantships and graduate scholarships can be found HERE.

In addition to assistantships, full- or partial-tuition scholarships are also available. The scholarships are provided by generous donors who recognize the importance of attracting exceptional students from all over the world. Students who are awarded graduate assistantships may also be awarded tuition scholarships. Graduate assistantships and graduate tuition scholarships are available only to students who are enrolled full time and who have been admitted unconditionally.
