Scholarships for outstanding academic performance are awarded on the basis of the results that candidates achieve in written examinations, and, in the event of a tie, grades obtained in the current and previous years of study, and outcomes of interviews conducted by CGS assessors are also taken into account.
- The granting of a Full Scholarship requires an average score of 80% or higher (the top 5 candidates with the highest score of over 80%) and success in the personal interview (the student profile is consistent with the International Baccalaureate definition for students attending its programmes).
- The granting of a Partial Scholarship (30%-80%) requires an average score of 60% or higher (the top 10 candidates with the highest score of over 60%) and success in the personal interview (the student profile is consistent with the International Baccalaureate definition for students attending its programmes).
- If the criteria are not met, the estimated budget will be allocated according to the performance of the successful candidates.
