Overseas Scholarship Scheme
Tante Marie School of Cookery is pleased to announce the availability of a number of worldwide scholarships open to prospective overseas students wishing to attend the School’s Cordon Bleu Diploma Courses. The number and value of the scholarships shall be at the discretion of the Board of Tante Marie but scholarships will normally result in a discount of anything between 5% and 20% on Tante Marie’s published fees for the Cordon Bleu Diploma or Intensive Diploma Course. Students will be expected to pay for their own travel and living expenses whilst studying at Tante Marie.
The Board may in its absolute discretion decline to award any scholarships unless it receives applications that it considers to be of sufficient merit. The decision of the Board in respect of the award of scholarships as notified by the Principal of Tante Marie will be final. The Board reserves the right not to consider scholarship applications which are received after a student has enrolled on a particular course.
The scholarships are open to all prospective overseas students (nationals of, or persons permanently resident in, an overseas country including the United Kingdom’s Overseas Territories) or overseas students studying in the UK at the time of application. Applicants are responsible for ensuring they will be able to comply with any UK immigration requirements.
