Every year, up to 200 Schwarzman Scholars will represent the world’s next generation of leaders — individuals with open minds and limitless potential. The deadline is on 26 September 2019.
Schwarzman Scholars will be selected on the basis of not only their academic aptitude and intellectual ability, but also their leadership potential, entrepreneurial spirit, ability to anticipate and act on emerging trends and opportunities.
The students selected to become Schwarzman Scholars will receive a comprehensive scholarship. It will include tuition fees, room and board, travel to and from Beijing at the beginning and end of the academic year, an in-country study tour, required course books and supplies, health insurance, a stipend of $4,000 for personal expenses.
