EMBA scholarships are rare and small. Executive programs are for-profit programs, so getting a scholarship is like getting a discount on the product that you’re buying and there has to be a really good reason for them to give you a discount. Most of the full-time programs are nonprofit and that makes them focus more on education and academics, rather than maximizing enrollment. Executive programs are different animals and admissions team is more like a sales support team rather than a traditional admissions team.
I think if you are a very impressive individual who will make a huge contribution to the program, they may give you a 25% scholarship

bb is right. Scholarships to EMBA programs are almost non-existent.
Another reason is because many students are sponsored by their current employers, so why offer corporations a subsidy? Additionally, EMBA students are usually working currently, so they have income they can rely on to help fund their education. That's different from full-time MBA students who are foregoing income AND spending money on tuition.
You can inquire with the admissions and financial office, but I wouldn't count getting much, if anything.
