I was one of two recipients of the Business School Dean’s Fund scholarship. Imperial is an extremely competitive school and so being recognised in this way out of the hundreds of students in the Business School me feel proud and validated. It also made me feel like I had made the right decision to pause my career and pursue higher education.
If you are offered an Imperial College Business School scholarship or Imperial Loyalty Bursary and are subsequently offered a larger award by us, the larger one would supersede the first award and would not be in addition to it.
Scholarships awarded by Imperial College Business School are in the form of a reduction of the tuition fee. Therefore, if you receive another scholarship that pays the full tuition fee directly to the College, you cannot also receive a scholarship from the Business School.
