MIS 2022-2023 Scholarship Programme is now open for applications. 

Some might say the financial benefit is the most rewarding part of a scholars time at school, however, students who have embarked on a school scholarship are recognised as having “something special”. 

Universities look upon scholars as being accomplished and gifted, prepared and ahead of the game! 

Being awarded a scholarship is a big deal! Most colleges are looking to add students who will be positive contributors to their student body. A merit scholarship confirms that you are a capable student who would be a great addition to their school. 

Of course, nobody can deny a scholarship has financial benefits, some high achieving young learners may miss out on international schooling due to the private tuition fee costs.    

MIS offers two scholarship programmes IGCSE and A Level. 

Various scholarships 

(academic, music & sports) on offer

At Merchiston International School we believe in providing deserving students with the opportunity to experience the best British international education in a culturally diverse environment.

曼校2022-2023年度奖学金项目正式发布，请各位申请者详细阅读本文末政策部分，做好申请的相关准备。

有人可能认为，经济上的意义是奖学金最主要的价值，而实际上，奖学金获得者在学校会被认为在某些方面有“过人之处”，这个意义甚至更为重要。

当在申请大学的时候，学校往往会更看重在IGCSE和A Level阶段的奖学金获得者，因为这些人往往是有过人成就、拥有过人才能的。

从这个角度来看，申请和获得奖学金是件重要的大事。绝大多数的大学都希望他们可以招到更多曾作出积极贡献的学生。一项优异奖学金可以证明你是个能干的学生，这对大学做选择时是否有帮助。

当然，没人否认奖学金的经济意义，由于学费的问题，一些成绩斐然的学生可能错过国际学校的学习机会。曼校的奖学金计划正是为这些学生提供了机会。

曼校现为IGCSE 和 A Level 阶段学生提供相应的奖学金计划。

包括学术、音乐、体育等各类奖学金
