Cambridge Judge Business School, University of Cambridge, is offering scholarships for 2012 entry to the postgraduate diploma in entrepreneurship through the Entrepreneurship Alumni Scholarship Fund. The fund has been made available by the graduates of the University of Cambridges advanced diploma in entrepreneurship, who wish to support entrepreneurs of the future, especially those who would otherwise be unable to fund their studies.
Candidates who meet specific criteria in terms of meeting or exceeding the academic requirements, demonstrating clear entrepreneurial potential and ambition; and the need for financial support would be awarded scholarships of up to 3000. A scholarship committee has been created to oversee the award of scholarships which will work alongside the faculty involved in admissions to the programme to ensure that those receiving scholarships meet the entry criteria for the programme. Joanna Mills, programme director, says, We appreciate the generosity of our alumni and hope this will prove to be the start of a rolling fund with the potential to support many students over the years.
Candidates wishing to apply for an alumni scholarship should send a letter of no more than 1,000 words, highlighting their entrepreneurial potential and listing their financial need. The letter should be sent to Elizabeth King, programme and admissions manager for the postgraduate diploma in entrepreneurship at Cambridge Judge Business School, along with a full and completed application for the programme. The deadline for application is April 30. For details, log on to www.cfel.jbs.cam.ac.uk/programmes/diploma/scholarship_fund.html
