Recipients of the scholarship in their sophomore year receive a $5,000 award toward tuition and academic expenses for one year. Students invited to return for a second summer internship are eligible to receive an additional award of $10,000. Recipients in their junior year receive a scholarship award of $10,000. Scholarship recipients also receive an offer for a paid Goldman Sachs summer internship.

MBA Fellowship
The Goldman Sachs MBA Fellowship is an integral part of our diversity recruiting effort. The Fellowship is designed to increase the level of interest in and awareness of careers in the financial services industry among Black, Hispanic and Native American business school students. The Fellowship is also a reflection of our Business Principles and is awarded to recognize outstanding students and the achievements they have made.

Recipients of the fellowship will receive:

• A summer internship in a US domestic office. We provide students with the opportunity to work as a summer associate between the first and second years of business school so that they gain insight into the financial services industry, our firm and our culture
• A $15,000 award toward tuition, academic and living expenses
• Upon successful completion of the summer internship and acceptance of a full time offer, Goldman Sachs will also underwrite tuition costs associated with the second year of business school or an additional $15,000 award toward tuition, academic and living expenses

Application deadline: Students who attend a business school where Goldman Sachs interviews on-campus must apply by their school-specific deadline. Check with you career service office for more details. Students from all other schools must apply by December 5, 2008. View application details [PDF, 90KB].
