Scholarships 

At IIMB, we aspire to ensuring that no student offered admission is denied access to a high-quality management education due to financial constraints. Need-based scholarships of up to 100% are awarded to deserving candidates based on income level and demonstrated financial need. Additionally, merit-based scholarships are offered to exceptionally talented students to recognize and support academic excellence.

To strengthen and expand these student-support initiatives, we invite your generous contributions – whether through an endowment or by directly funding scholarships for selected students. Your support can help transform lives and advance inclusive, world-class education at IIM Bangalore.
