Financial Aid
A Stanford MBA degree is a significant investment in you and your future. To help you fund the full cost of your attendance, Stanford GSB offers a combination of student loans and fellowship awards to U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and international students who have demonstrated need.
The Financial Aid Office staff is available to answer questions about the application process and policies at any time.

Student Support
This is your starting point for information, support, and connections to resources throughout Stanford.

The team collaborates with students to proactively shape their time at the GSB and as they navigate any challenges they may face along the way. They help students identify resources, discuss options, understand precedents, and explore strategies to succeed both inside the classroom and beyond.
