business scholarship

Want to start your own business but not sure where to even begin? Here’s the perfect launchpad: Brit + Co's business program for women, Selfmade, boasts a community of women and experts to share, inspire, and lift you up!


Thanks to our incredible partner, Office Depot OfficeMax, we're offering 300 scholarships for an annual membership to Selfmade (details below!).


In the past, we’ve launched Selfmade ten weeks at a time, several times a year. We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve expanded our program to be always on! Selfmade now takes place on an ongoing basis, and it's all virtual so you can choose to join in-person for live sessions or at your own pace.

Connect with an amazing community of CEOs, professional coaches, and entrepreneurs like you and learn valuable skills, like how to brand your business, how to reach more customers through social media, how to make a powerful pitch to investors, and more. Office Depot OfficeMax and Selfmade will arm you with robust resources, and you’ll get access to:

  • Weekly live workshops with coaches
  • 1:1 mentoring and group chats with like-minded entrepreneurs
  • On-demand courses
  • Customizable templates for P&Ls, pitch decks, marketing assets, and more
  • Access to world-class experts in tech, finance, marketing, sales, and investing
  • Seasonal pitch competitions with thousands of dollars in grants and cash prizes
  • Community breakout sessions and meetups

How to apply for a scholarship

Selfmade offers four different membership tiers, but this fall, Office Depot OfficeMax is granting 300 FREE scholarship seats to the annual program. Scholarships are open to U.S. residents, focusing on women of color, women from underserved and underrepresented communities, and women in need of support to help them turn an idea into a dream business. Part of the magic of Selfmade is the powerful community of women cheering you on, during the course and beyond.

To nominate yourself or someone you know for a scholarship, head to our application form. The deadline for scholarship applications is September 30, 2022 — but don’t pause, apply today! You don’t need to have a fully baked idea or even a business plan. We can help you develop all of that throughout the course with one-on-one coaching and more.

Learn more about the Selfmade program, apply for a scholarship, and start being your own boss today!
