Executive DBA Scholarships
Merit Scholarship
Executive Education applicants 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.
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.
Explore Your Employer’s Tuition Benefits
Many employers offer tuition assistance or reimbursement benefits to support employees pursuing advanced degrees. We encourage you to check with your employer to understand the benefits available to you, as some organizations may provide significant supprot toward the cost of your Executive DBA.
Take Advantage of Tax-Free Educational Assistance
Under current IRS guidelines, up to $5,250 in qualifying employer-provided educational assistance may be excluded from an employee’s taxable income each year. Because Drexel’s DBA spans eight semesters over three calendar years, you may be able to take advantage of this tax benefit in each year of the program.
