The Calum Miller Scholarships are awarded to students from any country. Two scholarships are available and each scholarship will be worth £5,000.

Eligibility:
The scholarships are open to applicants who have an excellent academic record and who are applying for admission onto the full-time MBA or full-time International MBA programme in September 2010 at the University of Edinburgh.

The scholarships will only be awarded to an applicant who has firmly accepted their offer through payment of the deposit. Applicants who hold full sponsorships or who are entitled to fee omission are not eligible for the scholarships.

If an applicant is successful in being awarded a scholarship, but subsequently declines their offer of admission on the MBA programme, the award of the scholarship will be withdrawn and awarded to another applicant.

Criteria:
The scholarships will be awarded on the basis of academic merit and the benefits to the student. The decision will be made by a committee consisting of the Programme Directors and key staff from the Admissions Officer.

Application Procedure:
Applicants should submit a 1000 word essay, explaining why they feel they should be awarded the scholarship, and how the scholarship will benefit them. This essay should accompany the application for admission to the MBA programme. Prospective students who have already sent an application for admission are welcome to apply separately. Applicants should include their full name and contact details as stated in their programme application. Separate scholarship applications without these details will not be considered.
