The Doctor of Management Program provides support for a select group of outstanding leaders in the nonprofit sector who are students in the Program. Partial tuition scholarship support from the DM Program helps to defray expenses of a limited number of highly qualified individuals from the nonprofit sector entering the DM Program. Candidates for the DM Nonprofit Research Fellowships must meet the regular DM admission criteria and in addition, show unusual promise for contributing to the development of the nonprofit field. Individuals will be considered for partial funding of up to three years of tuition and fees for the DM Program.
