The organising committee of QS APPLE is developing a role in the selection of the winners.
Over the last four years 24 individuals from all over the world have benefited from these scholarships to support their study at prestigious institutions such as Columbia, Stanford, IESE, University of Navarra, Universita Luigi Bocconi, Cambridge and others;
- 8 from Asia
- 3 from Latin America
- 8 from Europe and
- 5 from North America
QS Education Trust scholarship scheme is independent and free of any political allegiances, though we work closely with government ministries throughout Asia, Europe and the Americas. The scheme is community-based because any university can offer full or partial scholarships through QS Education Trust. The only condition is that the institution should travel on the QS World Grad School Tour or QS World MBA Tour, so that we can raise awareness through our in-country advertising and promotional campaigns.
Schools already offering scholarships through the QS Education Trust community include:
- Wharton, University of Pennsylvania - USA
- University of Chicago - USA
- Instituto de Empresa - Spain
- Politecnico di Milano - Italy
- University of Geneva - Switzerland
- Ashridge Management School - UK
- Nijenrode University - Netherlands
