A year's study at a top B-school costs in the region of $45,000.

Financial aid at Harvard Business School and Stanford GSB is awarded on the basis of need, and regardless of citizenship.

Approximately two-thirds of all HBS students receive some form of financial assistance. The maximum fellowship will cover one year's tuition, the curriculum materials fee and a single health insurance fee.

Wharton, Duke's Fuqua and Michigan Business School concentrate on merit. They offer a limited number of merit-based scholarships and fellowships. Wharton also awards fellowships sponsored by numerous corporations and foundations. Most are dedicated to helping students from underrepresented groups.

There is alternative funding opportunities exists through various finacial institutes.

The American Alumni Association in India, offers travel grants to students with admissions to American colleges.

There are number of options, but you need to start the procedure at right time.
