BOCCONI GRADUATE MERIT AWARDS

Leave a comment

Application Deadline: November 30, 2024

LOCATION: Italy

Bocconi University is committed to making our superior level of higher education available to outstanding students. For the provision of these Awards, Bocconi University commits its own resources as well as generous donations from private donors, Alumni, individuals and foundations. Merit Awards will be made available for first year Graduate applicants for the 2024-2025 academic year based on their academic standing.

ELIGIBILITY:

Academic profiles considered to be amongst the top applicants (International, Italian and Bocconi) will be considered for a Merit Award based on the admission’s application submitted to Bocconi University. A separate application will not be required. 

The Bocconi Merit Award evaluation will primarily be based on the candidate’s academic achievement. In addition to academic achievement, the complete dossier provided to the Admissions office will be evaluated.

The Selection of awardees will be carried out by a Committee, nominated by the Rector, including the Dean of the Graduate School and the Dean for International Affairs, whose decisions about numbers, amounts and recipients is final and unquestionable.

The number of awards to applicants will not be equally divided amongst the different rounds. The majority of awards will be allocated – for each category of students (International, Italian, and Bocconi candidates) – in the first relevant rounds: the final percentage of awarding for each round is at the discretion of the Committee.

It is specified that the assigned benefit will be revoked to students enrolled to the first year who are still enrolled with reserve as of November 30, 2024. In fact, the University cannot grant a benefit to a student who does not appear to have completed enrollment by that date.

BENEFIT:

The Merit Award includes a full tuition and fees waiver.
