hi friend
does Simon provide any scholarship covering living expense for female international applicants?
Simon Leadership Fellowships
MBA candidates with superior academic and professional credentials may be eligible for one of our full-tuition Simon Leadership Fellowships. Typically awarded during Scholarship Weekend, the Fellowships also include stipends for partial living expenses, up to $10,000 per year. In addition, Simon Fellows benefit from priority access to on- and off-campus receptions, speaker series, and premier networking opportunities.
is that for only usa candidates or also international candidates?
Thank you

Simon does provide Leadership Fellows to a batch of students ( the top 4-5% of a matriculating cohort of students). Of these, only one student will get a 100% tuition scholarship and $10,000 is paid towards miscellaneous expenses. The remaining fellows get some tuition scholarship plus all fellows get paid a stipend of upto $10000 a year.
For the current, 2015 MBA batch of students graduating this year, the school did a pretty good job at selecting fellows. The Fellows included a diverse group of students and are a mix from all countries - including America, Jamaica, India and China. But a majority of them are Americans
But, I must say, they've not been able to choose the right deserving candidates to receive Fellows in the 2016 MBA batch of students. In fact, they've got it all wrong. This probably may have something to do with the change of leadership at the Dean's level. But i'm not sure of their current methodology.
