Jardine Scholarship Awards – Jardine Foundation

The Jardine Foundation was set up in 1982 to mark the 150th anniversary of the Jardine Matheson Group. The Foundation offers qualified students from Asia full scholarships to study at Oxford and Cambridge Universities. The goal is to develop future leaders who will give back to the communities where the Group operates. Scholarships are available for courses at Oxford and Cambridge Universities, with strong preference being given to undergraduate courses at the following Colleges:

1. University of Cambridge – Downing, Magdalene, Peterhouse, Trinity
2. University of Oxford – Exeter, Oriel, The Queen’s, Trinity

In addition to scholarships for undergraduate studies, the Foundation also offers a limited number of scholarships for postgraduate studies. Potential candidates are recommended through the preferred Colleges at Oxford and Cambridge for students who have already been accepted by the Universities.

Since the launch of the Foundation, scholarships have been awarded to over 370 outstanding students from Cambodia, mainland China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam.

Tenure and Conditions
For first degree courses, the scholarships are for periods of three or four years or such longer period as the Scholarship Committee may decide and are for courses at Oxford University and the Cambridge University in the United Kingdom.

Preference will be given to undergraduate courses in the following Colleges at:

• University of Oxford:
  • Exeter College
  • Oriel College
  • The Queen’s College
  • Trinity College
• University of Cambridge:
  • Downing College
  • Magdalene College
  • Peterhouse
  • Trinity College

The Scholarship is conditional upon the candidate being selected for and taking up a place at one of the above preferred Colleges. Since the Universities make their own choice in admitting students, there is no guarantee of a place. Scholarship awards will not be confirmed by the Scholarship Committee until the candidate has been accepted by one of the preferred Colleges.

All Scholarship Awardees shall abide by the Regulations Governing Scholarships.

Eligibility
Applicants must normally be within seven years of having completed the secondary school education, at the date of entry to any one of our preferred Colleges, which include Exeter, Oriel, The Queen’s and Trinity at the University of Oxford, and Downing, Magdalene, Peterhouse and Trinity at the University of Cambridge, and must:

• have reached an academic standard to qualify for entry to any one of such Colleges.

Generally, applications will not be accepted from candidates whose parents have not resided in such relevant country or territory for at least seven years prior to the proposed date of entry to University.
• be in a satisfactory state of health.

Application for a study programme leading to a second first degree or a study programme currently being pursued will not be considered. Applicants who have already been awarded other fully-covered scholarships to study overseas at the time of application will also not be considered.

Basis of Selection
In making awards, the Scholarship Committee will take into account not only academic achievement but also:

• personal qualities and character to which the applicant has demonstrated exceptional qualities of leadership and fellowship;
• achievements in non-curricular activities, including sports;
• community involvement and activities; and
• other attributes which, in the opinion of the Scholarship Committee, indicate that the applicants is likely to become an outstanding citizen with a high commitment to the performance of public duties and/or community involvement.

Value of Scholarships

• Each Scholarship awarded will generally be sufficient to cover fees, tuition, the cost of books and equipment, board and lodging (preferably on a living-in basis where this is available at the University), and reasonable living expenses and travel expenses to and from the University at the beginning and at the end of the course for which the Scholarship is awarded.
• The Scholarship will include :
  • university tuition fees payable directly to the University;
  • college fees excluding board and lodging payable directly to the College;
  • an annual stipend to cover board and lodging and all other incidental expenses (subject to the discretion of the Trustees, this will be payable in four instalments. The first instalment will be larger to cover initial costs);
