It is not very often that you see an opportunity for a free MBA cross your doorstep. If you are fortunate, you hopefully work for an employer that may help to subsidize the expense associated with your graduate work. However, if you are not that lucky, I would suggest looking into the free MBA opportunity being provided by Lipscomb University in Nashville, Tennessee.

This year, Lipscomb will be fulfilling the financial dreams of one happy student by offering them a full scholarship to their Graduate School of Business. The scholarship (currently valued at $40,000) will cover all of the tuition expenses associated with the degree completion program of your choosing. All of these programs can be completed in as little as 12 months but the scholarship offer will remain in effect for 2 years – allowing you ample time to complete your degree.

As you can imagine, in order to be considered for this amazing opportunity, there are a few requirements:

• You need to apply and be accepted to the graduate business program
• You need to submit a video (no more than 2 minutes in length) that would reflect your personal story and answer the following questions:
  • How you are one degree away from making a difference in the world
  • How an MBA, PMBA, MAcc or MHR from Lipscomb University’s Graduate Studies in Business would your impact life and that of others
  • Why you should be the one to receive the One Degree Away From Making A Difference Scholarship from the Lipscomb University Graduate Studies in Business
• Video needs to be submitted by June 15th
