The Pagoda Scholarship is a fully-funded place on the Golden Path programme, awarded each year to a small number of exceptional students with the drive and ability to reach the top — regardless of circumstance.
Apply NowApplications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Apply early.
Scholars receive exactly the same access as every full Golden Path student — nothing held back.
Complete access to every module, resource, and session on the Golden Path programme — the same programme that places students at Morgan Stanley, McKinsey and EY.
Dedicated coaching sessions with a Pagoda adviser — covering your personal strategy, applications, and interview preparation from start to finish.
Full access to application resources, mock interviews, psychometric test practice via Pagoda Prep, and all networking opportunities.
The scholarship is awarded on merit. We are looking for students with the academic foundation, the ambition, and the direction to make the most of it.
Open to students entering or currently in their first years of undergraduate study.
We are not looking for a specific grade or institution. We are looking for evidence that you are exceptional — in whatever form that takes for you.
Demonstrable, specific interest in a career in finance or consulting. Not just curiosity — genuine direction, evidenced in your application.
There is no application portal. Send your materials directly to us and we will be in touch.
Tell us who you are, why finance or consulting, and why now. No template — write it in your own voice. Maximum two pages.
Include your predicted or achieved grades, and any relevant academic achievements or prizes.
A current CV. Do not worry if it is thin — we are assessing potential, not experience.
Send your personal statement, academic record, and CV to the address below. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis — the sooner you send, the better.
