Executive
Education Frequently Asked Questions
What
is the cost of each program?
The cost of each program is $950. The Center for Nonprofit
Management has a scholarship program which enables paid
and volunteer leaders of nonprofit organizations to
receive financial assistance up to 50% of the tuition
cost.
Are
ALL the nonprofit executive education programs open
to scholarship assistance?
Yes, you may apply to any program that you feel is appropriate
to fit your needs.
Is
it possible to get a full scholarship ($0 tuition)?
No, we believe executive education is a partnership
between the Kellogg School and you and your organization.
Therefore, each side needs to financially contribute
to the educational experience. We will accept tuition
payments from you or your organization.
How
do you apply for a scholarship?
You will find an application and scholarship form on
this Web site. It is available as an online
form or as a printable PDF version that you may fax to 847-491-8525.
At
the completion of the program, do you receive college
credit?
No, our executive education programs are non-degree.
These programs are designed to provide a strategic view
of topics and build certain skills in specific functional
areas. If you are trying to improve your formal educational
credentials, you may want to explore our MBA
program with its concentration in Social Enterprise (SEEK).
How
long is each program?
Each program begins at 3pm on Sunday and continues until
noon on Tuesday. There are no classes on Monday evenings.

or marketing experience, you will be able to apply the
concepts taught in the second program. If you have specific
