The South Asia Bridge Scholarship is designed to support outstanding candidates from South Asian countries. More than a financial award, it represents a bridge between Surrey Business School and emerging leaders across the globe, providing them with the skills, insights, and confidence to drive economic progress and social development in their home region. It is open to applicants joining either the full-time or part-time MBA programme.
This is a partial scholarship that covers 10–50% of tuition fees, depending on the applicant's profile and interview performance. Scholarships are awarded on a rolling basis, so candidates who apply early in the admissions round have a greater chance of receiving an award. We do not charge for applications to the scholarship or the programme.
