Under the JC Scholars Programme, students are recognised for their academic excellence by receiving a scholarship each year during their JC studies.
Alongside this financial support, participants benefit from exclusive academic programmes and a vibrant support network aimed at preparing them for top UK university admissions.
Who is Eligible?
Students who achieve six or more GCSEs at grades 8 or 9 are invited to join the JC Scholars Programme at the start of Year 12. No additional application is required; selection is based solely on academic merit.
Payments
Students receive £300 per year, distributed in four instalments, to help them afford essential study materials such as textbooks and to cover fees related to preparing for and sitting university entrance exams.
*Please note, the JC Scholars programme is distinct from our bursary scheme, which provides financial assistance based on individual circumstances. For further information about eligibility and application procedures for bursaries, please refer to the dedicated section on our website.
