The Skoll Scholarship provides comprehensive support that goes beyond covering costs. Scholars receive full funding for their MBA tuition fees, which is among the highest in the world, thereby removing the financial barrier to studying at Oxford. In addition, the scholarship offers a living stipend to partially cover essential expenses while studying in the UK. More importantly, recipients become part of the Skoll Scholar Community, a lifelong network of social entrepreneurs, changemakers, and leaders who share experiences and collaborate on global challenges. Scholars also gain direct access to the Skoll Centre’s activities, including leadership training, workshops, and exclusive networking opportunities. This combination of financial assistance, learning, and mentorship ensures that recipients can focus fully on their studies and personal growth while building connections that will support them long after graduation.

The Skoll Scholarship targets social entrepreneurs and leaders who have demonstrated a deep commitment to solving critical global issues. Applicants must have at least three years of practical experience leading or significantly contributing to the success of social ventures, whether through a non-profit, business, or impactful project. Candidates should provide evidence of the impact they have already created and show clear potential for future growth. Beyond professional achievements, the scholarship values personal qualities such as persistence in the face of challenges, humility, a learning mindset, and the ability to think critically about complex systems. Applicants must also demonstrate how pursuing the Oxford MBA will help them scale their initiatives or expand their influence to achieve greater social or environmental impact. Importantly, candidates must show financial need, meaning they would not be able to take up the Oxford MBA without this scholarship.
