Financial Assistance - What scholarships are available?
The Leif Torne PDP Scholarship is a newly endowed fund that offers scholarships to PDP classroom participants currently working in Europe. You may apply by completing the application form or by requesting an application from the Office of Executive Education. The completed scholarship application must be submitted with your PDP application and resume. Leif Torne PDP Scholarship amounts vary, depending upon available funding and the number of scholarships awarded. There is a two-session minimum attendance required in order to receive scholarship moneys. Submission deadline extended to April 30, 2012! Scholarships will be awarded in early May.
Several regional organizations, such as the Caribbean Hotel Association and the International Hotel and Restaurant Association (IH&RA), offer scholarship opportunities to their members; but these are neither funded nor administered by Cornell University.
Alternatively, you may want to check with hospitality or business associations within your region to explore possible funding sources.
