Other financing

ESMT offers a student loan program for participants in its Full-time and Executive MBA programs for applicants who are German or have lived for more than two years in Germany.

Applicants must first be accepted to the ESMT Full-time or Executive MBA program before applying for the student loan. Upon loan authorization, ESMT will pay all processing fees as well as the interest due during the program and the first six months after graduation. 

Accepted candidates can apply for a loan of up to  € 30,000. Approval is not based upon age, and repayment begins six months after graduation. Loans may be sourced from a range of competitive financial institutions in Germany. Specific arrangements are already in place with  Deutsche Bank via the db StudentenKredit.
