The Trust does not provide full-cost scholarships for MBA or MFin programs. However, the Trust will evaluate the possibility of co-funding students enrolled in MBA and MFin programs if they are nominated by funding partners who may have their own application procedures.
Unfortunately, the Trust cannot grant scholarships for part-time MSt courses in any department at the University. Its important to note that MSt courses should not be confused with MASt courses.
Please be aware that the Trust offers a limited number of scholarships for undergraduate students, with a greater number of scholarship programs available for postgraduate students. Approximately 85% of the scholarships awarded each year are granted to students pursuing Masters or PhD degrees.
The Trust typically does not support students seeking a degree at the same level as or lower than one they already hold. However, there are two exceptions: applications from students required to pursue a second Masterss degree at Cambridge for Ph.D. admission and international students planning to study as affiliated students for a second BA degree at Cambridge.
The Trust does not have scholarships available for post-doctoral positions or for visiting/exchange students.
While most students enroll in full-time study, the Trust is open to considering applications from students interested in part-time study, where such courses are offered by the University, as part of its commitment to promoting wider participation.
Procedure for Applying:
Every student must follow the regular application procedures for admission to the University of Cambridge. The Trust has no role in the Universitys admission process and cannot influence an applicants chances of being accepted.
The University has established minimum standards, so make sure to review the requirements for both undergraduate and postgraduate applicants. Additionally, be sure to check the application deadlines for undergraduates and postgraduates.
We strongly advise applicants to meet the Universitys entry requirements early, including, if necessary, completing an English language test. This will help prevent the Trust from awarding scholarships to students who may ultimately be unable to take up their places at Cambridge.
Please also take the time to read the Trusts Information for undergraduate applicants or Information for postgraduate applicants for further guidance.
