The Hamilton Scholarship is valued at $25,000 a year for up to two years of undergraduate study at an accredited educational institution. The scholarship is managed by Hamilton’s Community Giving Committee.
The award was established in 2016 to encourage more Bermudians and holders of the Permanent Resident Certificate to consider a career in insurance and reinsurance, regardless of course of study. The current Hamilton Scholar is Ciara Burrows, who is studying law at the University of Southampton in England.
The long-term goal of the Hamilton Scholarship is to create a pool of talented young people who will contribute to Bermuda’s competitiveness as a world-class international business centre.
The application form for the Hamilton Scholarship can be found here. Applications will be accepted as of December 1, 2019 with a closing date of April 3, 2020.
