Daya Kindness Fellowship

The world today needs kindness, acceptance, empathy and love. People in decision-making positions have the power to make this vision a reality. To contribute to this mission and create a better world, ‘Crack The MBA’ is launching a pre-MBA fellowship called ‘The Daya Kindness Fellowship’ for Indian applicants. In this first edition of the fellowship, Indian female applicants will have the opportunity to secure transformational admissions coaching support directly from Nupur Gupta, founder of Crack The MBA.

This fellowship is named after Nupur’s late grandmother Mrs. Daya Gupta (August 12, 1936 – July 29, 2020). True to her name ‘Daya’ (kindness in Hindi), Mrs. Gupta was a kind and strong person, and also a great leader. Mrs. Gupta encouraged her granddaughters to be creative and productive, empowering them to grow up into curious young adults. Her life is a living demonstration of the fact that women can be kind and great leaders. At Crack The MBA, we believe that the leadership capability in women is unexplored. Therefore, we want to encourage women to express their leadership by supporting them through the Daya Kindness Fellowship.

Application Timeline: The application to apply to the fellowship will be open from Thursday, April 01, 2021 to Thursday, April 15, 2021. The winner, selected by a two-member female decision committee, will be announced on Friday, April 30, 2021.

Daya Fellowship Award: The winner will be entitled to Crack The MBA’s full-service application advising support for upto 5 MBA applications until Thursday, January 27, 2022. (US$5,000+ value)*

Apply Now: The application to the Daya Fellowship is currently closed.

Daya Fellowship Decision Committee: The fellowship decision committee comprises female entrepreneurs who are kind and generous leaders, contributing to India’s development and their community everyday. They are Ms. Poornima Vardhan (Co-Founder, 335Bazaar) and Ms. Priyanka Gupta (Founder, Summer by Priyanka Gupta).
