 “I wanted to study for my MBA in a country where I would have the opportunity to improve my business Spanish and increase the number of opportunities open to me, thus maximising the benefits of studying abroad. To this end, I chose to study at ESADE. However, this meant that I would be studying in a country that doesn’t enjoy strong historical and economic ties with South Africa. My search for financial aid was thus a little bit harder than it may have been had I chosen to study in the UK or the USA. Thankfully, I was granted the ESADE Diversity Scholarship, allowing me to reach for my dreams. Just two months into my MBA, I am deeply thankful for what this scholarship has afforded me; high quality academics and a truly international professional network!”
Banele Levin – The Diversity Scholarship 
"Getting an MBA has always been a goal of mine.  Receiving the ‘Women of the World’ scholarship was vital to achieving this goal and has positioned me for success.  To know that ESADE supports me and encourages women in business motivated me to become co-president of the new Women of ESADE business club.  I can’t wait to see what this year brings and help inspire the future women of ESADE!" 
Margaret Robb – The Women of the World Scholarship  
"I was thrilled to receive the "Asian Business Scholarship” awarded to young Asian Professionals who are eager to influence the shape of business in Asia.  It was an extremely gratifying feeling to have my potential and accomplishments recognized, and I am thankful to ESADE for giving me this opportunity.  The Scholarship has provided me with a great incentive, and I have made my lifelong commitment to ESADE to assist in taking the school to higher levels of excellence." 
Melina Cutinha – The Asian Business Scholarship
"Deciding which scholarship to apply for was difficult, as there are so many options available, all of which relate to ESADE’s inherent values. I based my decision on what values i would like to stand for personally. For me, to be a recipient of the Leadership Scholarship not only reflects the honor I feel, but also the commitment to face change, to be ready for challenges and be the first to take action whenever it is needed. I am hoping to reach a professional level from which I can have an influence on the people and environment around me and on the organization I belong to. I believe that being a recipient of a scholarship is also a great responsibility. Whatever we accomplish with this opportunity should be an inspiring example for the future generations of ESADE."
