NYU Stern Scholarships
Harvey Beker Scholarship
The Harvey Beker Scholarship program was established in 2005 by Harvey Beker, MBA 1975. For Fall 2011, three $10,000 Beker scholarships will be awarded to first-year, full-time MBA students.
The Harvey Beker Scholarship program intends to foster an interest in philanthropy and create a group of like-minded Stern alumni who understand the importance of giving back to the School. Within five years of graduation, the Beker Scholars ideally will begin to share their success and start giving back to Stern. Thus, they will enable future students to excel and succeed.
