Scholarships

A number of scholarships and financing options are available to assist with tuition fees for select delegates.

Scholarship Application Procedure
1. Apply to the course.
2. The CQF Admissions Department will get back to you within 3 working days indicating whether you have been preliminarily accepted onto the program.
3. At this point (if you are accepted), you will need to indicate to the Admissions Department that you would like to apply for a CQF Scholarship.
4. The Admissions Department will send you a Scholarship Application form. You will need to demonstrate why you will benefit from taking the CQF and why you should be a worthy recipient of the discounted tuition. Your resume will also need to be included with the form.

Wilmott Scholarship
Delegates are eligible to apply for the Wilmott scholarship if they have been offered a place on the CQF and are either a) unemployed, b) studying full-time or c) living in a developing country and can prove financial need. The first step is to apply for the CQF online. If you are offered a place on the CQF and meet the above criteria you will then be eligible to apply for the scholarship. If you have any queries regarding your eligibility for the scholarship please contact info@cqf.com. The Wilmott scholarship gives successful applicants a 35% reduction on their course fees. 

Thomson Reuters Scholarship (Available to Delegates in the Americas only)
This scholarship waives 100% of the course fees to one person per course. Only those who are eligible for the Wilmott Scholarship (see above) will be considered for the Thomson Reuters Scholarship, and individuals can only apply for this scholarship once.

Jan 2010
The selection process is now complete, and the Thomson Reuters Scholarship is no longer available for the Jan 2010 program. The successful candidate has been announced.

Jun 2010
The Thomson Reuters Scholarship will be available for the June 2010 course. Those interested in applying for the scholarship can first apply for the June 2010 course to see if they can get into the program. Once preliminarily accepted, it is at that point that you can register your interest in the scholarship.

Pacific American Scholarship
A scholarship exists for those who are of Pacific American descent and are unemployed. Recipients of this program will have 50% of the total CQF tuition covered.
