Mansion House Scholarship
Application Form
Purpose of the Mansion House Scholarship
The Mansion House Scholarship Scheme exists to fund scholarships
for students and young business executives from overseas to travel
to the United Kingdom to study or to undertake training or work
experience in the Financial Services Sector.
Application procedure
The Scheme is administered as a Charitable Trust, with an
independent Chairman and four appointed Trustees. Nevertheless the
selection of scholars remains in the personal gift of the Lord
Mayor of the City of London and those awarded scholarships are
known as Mansion House Scholars. Scholarships are offered in those
countries which the Lord Mayor visits each year and selections are
made on the advice of the British Ambassadors, High Commissioners,
Consuls General and their staffs and, where appropriate, City of
London representational offices. In some cases, the awards are
linked closely to the Government sponsored Chevening Scholarship
Scheme, whose selection procedures are now well established.
Award value
Awards are usually in the region of 5,000 to 7,500 and are
restricted to those applying to study or to undertake training in
the Financial Services sector or in related subjects.
Applications

the British Embassy in Tunis. Complete applications should be sent
