[United Kingdom] Jardine Foundation Scholarship 2021

To mark its 150th Anniversary in June 1982, Jardine Matheson established an educational trust called The Jardine Foundation to provide scholarships. The Foundation in its discretion awards Jardine Scholarships annually to students to enable them to attend educational establishments, primarily selected colleges at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge (the ‘Universities’) in the United Kingdom.

The Foundation has established a program in conjunction with Universitas Gadjah Mada (‘UGM’). Therefore, the Foundation would like to invite UGM students, alumni, or staff to apply for the scholarships to pursue postgraduate studies in Oxbridge in 2021. Candidates shortlisted by the Foundation will be required to apply to the Universities, and if successful in securing a place, will then be subject to final consideration by the Selection Committee.
