Each year, SDA Bocconi School of Management —along with companies and other organizations — offers multiple merit-based scholarships and tuition waivers to candidates with outstanding profiles.

Upon Admission

Grants covering 10% to 25% of the program cost, totaling €30,000, may be awarded upon admission to the MAMA program.

To apply, select the relevant "Partial Merit-Based Tuition Waiver" and apply through your online application, even if your selection process is still in progress. Funding is limited, so early application is encouraged, to have better chances of an award.

Four Rounds During the Year

Two partial tuition waivers, covering up to 25% of the total program cost, are awarded across four rounds over the year.

To apply, select the relevant "Outstanding Candidates Tuition Waiver" and apply through your online application, even if your selection process is still in progress. Applying early increases your chances of being considered in all four rounds.

Note: Admission to the program is independent of the awarding of any scholarship or tuition waiver.

Tuition waivers for candidate Athletes

SDA Bocconi School of Management is also making available 2 merit-based tuition waivers of € 20,000 each to all 2026/27 Full-Time Specialised Masters’ candidates with an outstanding athletic background who can offer clear evidence of significant athletic activities (preferably in one of these 3 sports: basketball, volleyball and waterpolo) at a competitive level, such as participation in or selection for competitions or tournaments organized at national or international level prior to the date of enrollment.

Applications are assessed based on:

• Academic and professional record
• Specific requirements outlined in the competition notice
• Results of the MAMA selection process

How to apply

• Review the pre-requisites for each tuition waiver
• Submit your application for scholarships/tuition waivers via the online application portal by the indicated deadlines.

You can apply to the scholarship/ tuition waivers even if your selection process is still in progress.

If you meet more than one requirement, you may apply for multiple tuition waivers.

Important: only candidates who have completed the full MAMA application (online + supporting documents) will be considered eligible for a tuition waiver.

Participants are encouraged to seek out the numerous opportunities available in all countries, such as the sponsorship of the company that employs them, or scholarships offered by private foundations, international organizations or local governments.
