The scholarship covers approximately 80% of the Stanford MBA\u2019s tuition and fees for up to five Indian students to <a href=\"https:\/\/reports.accepted.com\/mba\/stanford_graduate_school_of_business_webinar\">attend Stanford GSB<\/a>, and the top 50 finalists for the Fellowship will even receive a break on applying \u2013 submitting Stanford\u2019s MBA application for free. The Fellowship\u2019s application process has already begun and registration will end on <strong>May 29th<\/strong>, so if you are considering applying to Stanford this year, be sure to complete the application soon.<\/p>\n<p>Successful Fellowship applicants will need to demonstrate excellent academics and career progress, strong commitment to India\u2019s development, and financial need. The Fellowship application is short, asking for educational history, test scores, employment history, a CV, financial information, and only one short essay of 250 words or less: <strong>\u201cHow do you aspire to shape India\u2019s future?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Two-hundred and fifty words is not a lot of space, so I recommend that you carefully detail your past <a href=\"https:\/\/reports.accepted.com\/leadership-in-admissions-2\">leadership experiences<\/a> in your CV to leave this brief essay solely to your vision for the future: In what areas do you aim to make the greatest headway? How do you plan to undertake that effort? What goals do you aspire to and how do you intend to help India reach them within the next 10 to 20 years?<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, goals based upon previous experiences and involvement will strike the Fellowship\u2019s review committee as the most authentic, so take the time to identify what areas of development are truly the most important in your eyes and share your passion through this essay. Once the top 50 finalists for the Fellowship are selected, they will proceed to complete the regular Stanford application.<\/p>\n<p><em>***Disclaimer: Information is subject to change.
