Merit-Based Scholarships: This scholarship program has been created to recognize top achievers who will be joining the MA Class of 2010. Scholarships are awarded to applicants based on the strength of their application in all areas including: academic record, GMAT/GRE score, leadership/extracurricular activities, interview, recommendations, and essays. Scholarships awards vary. MA Corporate Fellowships: This fellowship program has been created to promote the Babcock School's commitment to building a student body that mirrors the diversity found in the market place. MA fellowships are funded by local corporate sponsors. In exchange, the MA fellow will complete a Fellowship Practicum and meet with a corporate mentor. Corporate fellowships will be awarded to diverse students with excellent academic records, leadership potential, and who are members of constituencies that are traditionally under-represented at Wake Forest. The fellowship includes a full tuition award plus $21,000 stipend to cover living expenses during the program. For more information, contact Debra Jessup.

For eligibility, completed applications must be received by the April 1 scholarship deadline.
