The Schwarzman Scholar Scholarships in China

The Schwarzman Scholar

Every year, up to 200 Schwarzman Scholars will represent the world’s next generation of leaders — high-caliber individuals with open minds and limitless potential — a network of leaders who will serve as bridges between China and the rest of the world.

Schwarzman Scholars will be selected on the basis of not only their academic aptitude and intellectual ability, but also their leadership potential, entrepreneurial spirit, ability to anticipate and act on emerging trends and opportunities, exemplary character, and desire to understand other cultures, perspectives and positions.

All qualified candidates will have successfully completed their undergraduate degrees prior to enrollment and must be proficient in English.

Scholarship Benefits:

The students selected to become Schwarzman Scholars will receive a comprehensive scholarship. It will include:

·        Tuition Fees

·        Room and board

·        Travel to and from Beijing at the beginning and end of the academic year

·        An in-country study tour

·        Required course books and supplies

·        Health insurance

·        A stipend of $4,000 for personal expenses

Schwarzman Scholars will be the single largest philanthropic effort ever undertaken in China by largely international donors.
