Scholarships

One of the most important parts of MAD Academy is our scholarship program. As hospitality professionals ourselves, we are acutely aware that many of those whom our programs will best position to become leaders in the field cannot currently afford our tuition. Our scholarships are intended to ensure that no one who would benefit from a MAD education is turned away for lack of funds.

We award scholarships based on applicants’ perceived financial need and their potential as future changemakers. In 2021 we awarded over 200 scholarships, and hope to increase that number in the future.

Scholarships cover the entire program cost, including tuition, course materials, and meals during school hours. All other costs, including travel, accommodation, and pocket money, remain the student’s responsibility.

To apply for scholarships, head to the scholarship enrollment form under applications and select the specific program you wish to attend on the form.
