How do I know if I am eligible for the Future Leadership Scholarship?
If you are eligible to start an MBA program with BSL, then you are eligible to participate in the essay competition. Please see BSL’s MBA Admission Requirements to know if you are eligible.

What do I need to give to apply for the Future Leadership Scholarship?
In order to apply for the scholarship, you must submit 3 documents:

• An up-to-date CV
• Your completed application form (downloadable on our site)
• Your essay explaining how you will use a BSL MBA to achieve your professional vision(s).

Candidates not including these three documents will be disqualified.

Does participation in the Future Leader Scholarship entitle me to a Swiss Visa or Study Permit?
No. The winning candidate will need to comply to the Swiss Administration’s official procedures for obtaining the right to study in Switzerland. BSL will fully aid the winning candidate in the process.

If I win, when can I start a BSL MBA program?
If you win, you may begin an MBA program anytime before December 31, 2012.

If I win, can I start BSL’s MBA program this fall?
Yes. If you win and you wish to start our program full-time this fall, you will start our Flex MBA program and participate at a full-time pace. In doing this it may take you a little more than the 1 year that it usually takes to complete the program. When you start our program depends highly on your circumstances and visa/permit requirements. It may be the case that starting in Spring 2010 will be necessary.

How much money do I win, if I win the Future Leader Scholarship?
The Future Leadership Scholarship is a full scholarship award for educational studies at BSL. No monetary amounts will be provided to the winner. A certificate for studies at BSL will be issued. This is not transferable for studies at any other institution of higher education.

Does the scholarship include my travel expenses and living expenses in Switzerland?
No. The Future Leadership scholarship applies directly to educational tuition fees at BSL and does not include your personal travel and living expenses.
