University of Cambridge: Roosevelt Scholarship | Scholarships Sites

The College invites applications for Roosevelt Scholarships from well-qualified British and Canadian candidates who will be studying at the University of Cambridge for the M.Phil. Degree in matters relevant to Anglo-American relations. Successful candidates will have satisfied the provisional requirements of the Board of Graduate Studies of the University of Cambridge and have been accepted for registration on one of its postgraduate programmes, most probably at the Centre of International Studies.

The Scholarship is tenable for one year from 1 October 2011. Candidates must have graduated at a university before 1 October 2011. Consideration will normally be restricted to persons who have a record of academic distinction consistent with the proposed field of study and who can demonstrate the the makings to make a significant contribution to the broader life of Magdalene College, as well as to the wider interests of the Atlantic Studies Programme at the University of Cambridge.

In determining the value of the Scholarships in individual cases, the College will take into account candidates income from all sources. A maximum individual award (at October 2010 values) of no more than £9,847 (UK scholars) to £10,172 (Canadian scholars, to include settling in payment) will be made to a Scholar in 2011. It follows, therefore, that the funding to meet the costs of University and College Fees will have already been met by the applicant.

Rented accommodation in or near College will be made available to an unmarried Scholar. A married Scholar will be offered rented accommodation near to the College.

Candidates liable to pay University fees at the overseas rate will be expected to apply for Overseas Student Bursaries awarded by the University of Cambridge and organised by the Board of Graduate Studies and The Cambridge Trusts. GRADSAF application forms should reach the Board as soon as possible and no later than 30 January 2011 (or course deadline, whichever is earlier).

All candidates should complete a Roosevelt Scholarship application form (link below) or obtained from the Tutor for Graduate Admissions, Magdalene College, Cambridge, CB3 0AG. Applications (SIX COPIES) should be returned in hard copy to the Tutor for Graduate Admissions by 1 June 2011.
