Provider
The Boustany MBA Cambridge Scholarship is funded by the Boustany Foundation and awarded once every 2 years for the one-year full-time MBA at the University of Cambridge Judge Business School. The award is worth about 30,000 GBP (around 35,000 EUR) and contributes toward the MBA tuition fee, with additional support for travel and accommodation linked to the programme internship. The scholarship also includes membership of Pembroke College, one of the older Cambridge colleges, founded in 1347. Candidates must first secure a place on the Cambridge MBA and then apply separately to the Boustany Foundation; selection is based on academic record, GMAT performance, and interview. Preference is given to applicants of Lebanese descent, though the award is open to all nationalities. Because the scholarship is offered biennially and the value, internship arrangements, and closing date are reset each cycle, confirm the exact 2026/2027 figures and deadline on the official Boustany Foundation and Cambridge Judge Business School pages before applying.
