Talent comes from many different places.<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n
Opportunity should reach it too.<\/div>\n
\n

Our mission is to support thoughtful young people who can later shape their own communities and the world around them. That requires a community where students with different backgrounds and experiences can learn together.<\/p>\n

\n <\/span><\/p>\n

Through our scholarship system, we support students for whom paying the full tuition fee would create significant financial difficulty. We also recognise and support outstanding achievement.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The level of support is determined by Milestone\u2019s Scholarship Committee, taking into account the applicant\u2019s financial circumstances, the scholarship budget available for the given year and the applications received.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

The Merit Scholarship is available to both new and continuing Core Program students. Planning scenarios for 2027\/28 assume an average tuition support rate of 60\u201370%. Support requires consistently high performance throughout the year both at secondary school and at Milestone, as well as active commitment to the Institute\u2019s values and community.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Admissions + scholarship application<\/h3>\n

The information and documents required for the scholarship application must be submitted together with the admissions application.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/article>\n

\n

\n

Scholarship application<\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n

After the application is submitted, eligibility for an award is conditional on successfully completing the current Milestone programme year.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/article><\/div>\n

\n
i<\/div>\n

The first step is an administrative review of the application. If documents are missing, additional documentation may be requested, so it is worth starting to prepare the application in good time.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n 7<\/span><\/span>\n <\/div>\n

How are decisions made?<\/h2>\n

Every application is assessed individually.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n
\n

For needs-based scholarships, the Scholarship Committee considers factors including monthly household income per person, regular expenses related to health circumstances, the distance between the student\u2019s home and Milestone, and other relevant social circumstances.<\/p>\n

For successful applications, the level of support is also influenced by the scholarship budget available for the year and the number of applications received. A successful Bridge Scholarship application provides a full tuition waiver.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Opportunity should matter. Not a family\u2019s financial circumstances.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

What do we expect from scholarship recipients?<\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n
A scholarship is both an opportunity and a commitment.<\/div>\n
\n

We expect scholarship recipients to meet the requirements of their Milestone programme year, take an active part in student life, and participate in programmes organised by the Institute for scholarship students.<\/p>\n

\n <\/span><\/p>\n

The detailed conditions are set out in the scholarship call and guidance for the relevant academic year.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n

It is worth
applying.<\/h2>\n
\n

If paying the full tuition fee would be difficult, it is worth submitting a scholarship application. The Scholarship Committee reviews every application received.<\/p>\n
