Merit Scholarship

Executive Education students may be considered for merit-based scholarships awarded for leadership experience. Whether leading a for-profit or a non-profit organization, leadership experience is carefully evaluated and scholarships may be awarded for an outstanding record of experience.

Community Engagement Scholarship

Executive Education students who have a demonstrated commitment to community service and civic engagement by contributing to the mission and service of a community-based organization may be considered for a special scholarship.

Benefits for Veterans

Our programs provide significant financial support for veterans through the Yellow Ribbon Program, which can defray costs not covered by VA benefits.

Alumni Scholarship

Alumni have a unique opportunity for a scholarship towards tuition in both Executive Education programs.

Employer-sponsored Programs

We are happy to work with you and your employer to make financial arrangements that work for them. Because the Drexel DBA spans ten terms over three calendar years, employers can contribute and deduct the IRS standard $5,250 per employee per year ($15,750 total). Please check with your employer to see if any educational benefits are available.
