Few bills compare with the payments often required for student loans. Second only to mortgages for consumer debt, student loan debt is collectively more than $1.2 trillion for the 41 million Americans who owe, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
MBA students often borrow to pay for business school, and for some graduates, how much they owe can reach or exceed six figures.
4/17/16 Australian Graduate School of Management director Julie Cogin says the $1 million donation that will establish the school’s new MBA scholarship will be a game changer.
The donation, from corporate advisory firm Luminis Partners, will fund a full-time MBA program at no cost for each year’s scholarship winner with sufficient funds to continue the award for 11 years.
A key feature of the Luminis AGSM Wharton Business Innovation Scholarship will be an exchange to study at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School for part of the MBA program.
The scholarship includes the option of staying longer to do an internship in the US, although this is dependent on the student being able to obtain the required visa. The scholarship includes airfares and a living stipend for the period spent in the US.
Professor Cogin said donation was “game-changing” for AGSM, which is part of the UNSW Business School.
“We don’t do as well in Australia with philanthropy as other business schools we compete with,” she said.
