The London Business School Healthcare Scholarship supports one successful applicant to the School’s MBA. It is intended for people employed in healthcare, medical research or pharmaceuticals, with preference given to candidates who plan to remain in the sector after graduation.
The recipient studies the in-person MBA in London, choosing a 15-, 18- or 21-month exit point. Eligible admitted candidates are considered automatically rather than through a separate scholarship application.
Benefits & funding
- One scholarship is awarded.
- The award covers up to 50% of MBA tuition fees.
- The MBA tuition fee covers the full 15–21-month programme regardless of the chosen exit point.
Eligibility
- Applicants must first be successfully admitted to the London Business School MBA.

- Preference is given to applicants who intend to continue in the sector after graduation.
- The recipient is expected to contribute to the School’s Healthcare Club.
- No nationality, residency, gender or age restriction is stated for the scholarship.
- The MBA considers candidates from any academic discipline and may admit strong non-graduates, so no prior degree level is a universal scholarship gate.
