Scholarships and Financial Aid
Through generous funding from the Li Ka-shing Foundation, Cheung Kong MBA scholarships aim to attract individuals of exceptional ability and talent in China and around the world. The goal of these scholarships is to help meet the financial needs related to the educational well-being and personal development of all eligible MBA applicants.
All scholarships are granted on a non-cash basis. Below are the three scholarship options available for MBA applicants. The applicant may choose one of the following options or a combination of all three:
- Cheung Kong Early Admissions Scholarship for International Students
Cheung Kong GSB realizes the financial burdens an MBA education may create for some international students. In an effort to help these students, and with sufficient funding from the LKS Foundation, Cheung Kong will award those international students who apply during the Early Round with a special Early Admissions Scholarship. Please contact mbaadmissions@ckgsb.edu.cn for related information and materials.
Merit scholarships are awarded to applicants in recognition of their academic and career achievements as well as other related soft skills necessary for success in the business world. Assessment will be based on information provided within the applicant’s admissions application. Certain applicants demonstrating exceptional accomplishment or potential within an industry may receive merit scholarships provided by selected corporate sponsors.
Need-based scholarships are awarded to applicants based on their financial need and contingent upon their fulfillment of the criteria set within the scholarship policy established by Cheung Kong. Applicants interested in this scholarship must submit a separate form stating their income and related financial assets.
Rewards may range from partial to full scholarships, and can only be used to cover tuition cost.
Once an applicant's scholarship package is finalized, the designated amount will automatically be deducted from their tuition prior to the start of the academic year.
Student Loans
Bank loans are available only to mainland Chinese students. Students meeting the criteria set by the bank can apply for a student loan with a discounted interest rate. Admitted students will receive more detailed instructions in their welcome package.
