Boustany MBA Harvard Scholarship

The Boustany MBA Harvard Scholarship supports one student through the two-year MBA programme at Harvard Business School in Boston, United States. The award is granted once every 2 years and is worth US$102,200 in total — US$51,100 per year toward tuition fees — plus coverage of travel and accommodation costs related to the internship that forms part of the programme. The scholarship is funded by the Boustany Foundation, which supports education and creates opportunities for less privileged children, and works with Harvard to fund a single high-potential candidate each cycle. Candidates of any nationality may apply, although priority is given to candidates of Lebanese descent. To be eligible, applicants must first receive an offer of admission to the Harvard MBA programme; the scholarship is not a route into Harvard but a funding award for those already admitted. Applicants need a strong academic background and must show clear promise. The application process asks for a CV with a photograph, GMAT scores and the Harvard acceptance letter, sent directly to the Foundation. Because the award is biennial and the exact tuition figure and deadline are set per cycle, confirm the current-cycle amount, the next award year and the closing date on the official Boustany Foundation page before you apply.

What's covered

• Tuition support — US$102,200 in total toward tuition across the two-year MBA — US$51,100 per year (roughly ~€95,000+ (est.) in total).
• Internship travel — Travel expenses related to the internship element of the MBA programme are covered.
• Internship accommodation — Accommodation expenses connected with the internship are also covered by the award.
• Two full years of funding — The tuition support is paid across both years of the Harvard MBA, at US$51,100 each year.
• Single-scholar focus — Because one scholar is funded per biennial cycle, the award is concentrated on a single candidate rather than split across many.
