Tuition Waivers

Empowering Talent, Shaping the WHU of Tomorrow

At WHU, we're committed to supporting talented students. At least 15% of students receive tuition waivers, especially those in our bachelor's degree programs. These scholarships ensure that students eligible for support can learn and grow without the burden of tuition fees. Over the past 40 years, we've steadily increased the waivers offered, demonstrating our unwavering dedication to nurturing talent and fostering diversity.

Our goal is not just to sustain these opportunities but to expand them. Your support can make a profound difference – from individual donations to long-term contributions.

Testimonials of scholarship holders

Alexander Rausch
BSc Class of 2012
Managing Partner of Certa GmbH
"I wanted to gain as much relevant practical experience as possible in an international environment, not just studying theory. I was also impressed by the different entrepreneurial personalities who regularly gave presentations at WHU. This helped to motivate me to break out of the traditional career path of a consultant or manager and become an entrepreneur. A fantastic network of founders, generally very open in their exchanges, is available as part of the WHU ecosystem. Help and support are just a phone call away. However, studying at WHU was only possible with the tuition waiver. My family probably wouldn't have been able to financially support me otherwise."

Board member for digitalization and ESG (e.g. Süss MicroTec SE, PVA TePla AG)
"I could have studied at WHU without the tuition waiver by taking out a loan, but practically, I could not. I wouldn't have wanted to study at WHU without this tuition waiver offer; if there had only been elitist students from wealthy families, there would have been a lack of diversity. WHU gave me unique opportunities that I would not have had otherwise - integrated semesters abroad in 2 countries and a network of top-level contacts in the corporate world. Without WHU, I would not have been able to join Boston Consulting, which formed the basis of my profession. However, WHU was not only decisive for my career; I also made friends for life and met my husband."
