The scholarship amount is NOT valid for the second year. Somewhere on there website they indicate that all students can apply for second year scholarships (and they are competitive); however, typically scholarship amounts would be less (probably significantly less) than the first year if any. They hand out more scholarships in the second year with less money.
However, it's important to note that during the second year there are opportunities to TA/RA which come with partial tuition reimbursement and like $1,000 a month or something like that. From what I've heard, a lot of people keep their internship during the second year as well. My understanding is that most students don't have to borrow a lot for the second year.[/quote]
Thanks, mate! Have you confirmed this with the admissions committee member or an alumni? Just curious.[/quote]
"Merit-based Scholarships
Awarded to both domestic and international students.
First year merit scholarships are awarded based on competitive factors you provide in the Foster School of Business application including your GMAT score, GPA, and admission interview.
No scholarship application is required.
Second year merit scholarships are awarded based on GPA during your first year in the MBA Program, involvement in and contribution to student clubs, activities and demonstration of professionalism.
Second year students must apply for merit scholarships by submitting the online Scholarship Application due April 30."
