What a waiver is worth against each fee

A scholarship headline only means something next to the fee it is cut from. The table below puts each university's published waiver categories against its total programme fee, so a 20% waiver on a high fee can be compared with a lower sticker price that carries no waiver at all.

Online MBA FAQs

It is the Master of Business Administration studied through a university's online mode, with digital classes, study material, assignments and university-specified examinations. The degree is awarded by the university itself.

Validity depends on the university and on the regulatory entitlement or approval that applies to that specific programme for your admission period. Verify the status for the exact university, programme and academic year before enrolling.

Two years across four semesters in most programmes. Some universities publish a maximum permissible duration that allows you to complete over a longer period.

A bachelor's degree from a recognised institution is the common requirement. Minimum marks, entrance tests and any work-experience condition are set by each university.

Fees are set by each university, so the range is wide. The university comparison on this page shows the published figure for each programme in our dataset, and marks anything we could not verify as "Not specified".

Usually not. Many universities admit directly on graduation; a few run their own entrance test, and some accept or waive requirements based on a national test score or work experience.
