Scholarships

Finnart Scholarships are to make sure that youngsters are not denied the opportunity to go to college or university through lack of funds.  We would like to be able to help more, but our funds are limited. In the Academic year 2009/2010 we are supporting 53 Finnart Scholars.

The trustees are rigorous in checking the genuineness of applications, all of which have to be supported by the school and referees.  (Do not worry if the school gives you a bad reference as to your aptitude and good behaviour.  We are looking for those in need, not saints.)

Scholarships are given for the duration of the course, so mostly for 3 or 4 years and occasionally longer, e.g. for medical students.

You will be paid termly, subject to regular satisfactory reports from the college or university. (This sounds more daunting than it is: we just want to know you are attending the course, not partying in Ibiza).

If you are successful in getting a Finnart Scholarship, you will be asked to sign an undertaking that you will keep the Trust informed of any changes in your circumstances or your studies.
