Are there scholarships for an online MBA or master's?

Yes. Tomorrow University offers scholarships of up to 1,500 EUR toward an online MBA or master's, plus a Regional Price Grant that lowers tuition by up to 8,000 EUR depending on your country. You can also cut costs through payment-plan discounts and ECTS transfer, which reduces your fee by 30 EUR per credit.

Are there scholarships for an online MBA?

Yes. An online MBA or master's at Tomorrow University can be funded through more than one route, and most learners combine a few. There is a scholarship worth up to 1,500 EUR, a Regional Price Grant tied to your country, discounts for how you choose to pay, and a reduction for any prior study credits you transfer in. None of these depend on taking out a loan. The goal is to make a recognized German degree work around your budget, not the other way around. The exact mix you qualify for depends on your situation, so the most reliable way to see your own number is a short eligibility check.

What scholarships and grants does ToU offer?

Two funding instruments reduce tuition directly:

  • Scholarship of up to 1,500 EUR. This is deducted from your tuition at the end of the program when you pay upfront, yearly, by semester, or quarterly.
  • Regional Price Grant of up to 8,000 EUR. This grant reduces tuition by an amount that depends on the country you are based in, recognizing that cost of living and earning power vary across regions.

Both are applied against your tuition rather than paid out as cash, so they lower what you actually owe. Because the Regional Price Grant is country-dependent, the amount is not the same for everyone, which is another reason to run an eligibility check for your specific case.

How else can you lower the cost?

Beyond the scholarship and grant, two mechanics bring the total down further:

  • Payment-plan discounts. How you pay changes the price. Paying upfront is the cheapest option, followed by yearly, then semester, then quarterly, with monthly the highest. Choosing a less frequent plan can save a meaningful amount over a monthly plan across the program.
  • ECTS transfer. If you have relevant study credits you have not yet used toward a completed degree, you can apply to transfer them, up to half of your program's total ECTS. Every transferred credit reduces your tuition by 30 EUR. For the Impact MBA, relevant professional experience can also count toward credit.

Stacked together, these routes can move the real cost well below the headline tuition. The cost page walks through the full price by program and payment plan.

Is public funding (Bildungsgutschein) available?

For a regular online MBA or master's degree, no. Public funding instruments like the Bildungsgutschein in Germany run through AZAV certification, and at Tomorrow University that certification applies only to our ToU Academy B2B fellowships, not to the regular degree programs. So a degree learner funds their studies through the standard routes above: the scholarship, the Regional Price Grant, payment-plan discounts, and ECTS transfer.

If you are exploring corporate or team upskilling rather than a full degree, that is a different track. The ToU Academy fellowships are AZAV-certified, which is why up to 100% government funding can be available for eligible German companies. Which route fits depends on your setup, so the reliable next step is to check your eligibility or talk it through with our team.
