For the second year running, the student-led Cass Real Estate Club have worked hard in order to raise funds for a scholarship for students on the MSc Real Estate and MSc Real Estate Investment courses. The scholarship is awarded with funds raised primarily through the highly successful annual Real Estate Conference.
In 2012, £8,000 was raised and was awarded evenly between two highly motivated students requiring financial assistance. The 2013 conference raised £15,000 towards the scholarship fund, which is available to students with an offer on the MSc Real Estate or MSc Real Estate Investment course at Cass Business School who require financial assistance for the 2014/15 academic year.
Please note that the application process for the Cass REC Scholarship is separate from the application procedure for the other scholarships available at Cass Business School. Please see below for details on how to apply.
To be eligible for the scholarship, prospective candidates must prove their need for financial assistance and display outstanding academic credentials. Those with professional experience are also encouraged to apply. Only applicants holding an offer on MSc Real Estate or MSc Real Estate Investment will be considered – we will not accept applications from applicants who have not yet been made an offer.
Value: The £15,000 award will be split between a number of successful candidates.
