NCB Foundation scholarship applications are now closed for 2011 - 2012 academic year. Students were encouraged to apply online to receive financial assistance in the form of tuition fees, school books, uniforms, lunch and other school related expenses.
A significant aspect of the NCB Foundation’s scholarship programme includes the Parish Champion Award. This award is open to Jamaican students pursuing a tertiary education. Top students from the fourteen (14) parishes in Jamaica are selected and awarded tertiary scholarships valued at a maximum of $200,000 for each academic year. Out of the selected Parish Awardees, an All Island Champion is selected and awarded a scholarship valued at a maximum of $500,000 per year for the duration of their undergraduate programme. These awardees are selected based on high academic performance and a demonstration of community spirit and leadership abilities.
Applications for the next academic year will open in 2012.
