HEX programs are built for students who want real-world experience, from working with startups to exploring global innovation hubs. If cost is part of your decision-making (totally fair), there’s good news.
For 2026, HEX offers access to scholarships, grants, and funding pathways across multiple programs. Some are partial, some cover most of the cost, all are designed to make global learning more accessible.
