Business Scholars


The Business Scholars program provides scholarships and personalized engagement opportunities for four years to incoming students.

These funds are offered in addition to the federal, state and LR financial assistance for which the student is qualified, but cannot be combined to exceed the cost of tuition or combined with other top merit awards.

Scholars will have access to exceptional leadership training, networking opportunities and authentic and relevant field work associated with their desired career path. Scholars have traveled the world to learn from business professionals and seek to understand how they can use their leadership skills responsibly and ethically to make a positive difference in the world.  

Program Overview
