WHU Brain Capital financing solution
For some of our Executive Education programs participants have the opportunity to apply for the WHU Brain Capital funding option, which finances up to 100% of tuition fees. In return, participants must make a commitment to reimburse the loan in its entirety over a certain period of time depending on each individual’s income level after the program.
Currently, this financing option is available for our General Management Program in Sports Business.
