Davies-Jackson Scholarship
The Davies-Jackson Scholarship presents a unique opportunity for
students with exceptional academic records, who are among the first
in their families to graduate college, to participate in a course
of study at St.
John’s College at the University of Cambridge. After two
years of study, candidates are awarded a Cambridge B.A. degree,
known as the Cantab degree, which is often viewed as the equivalent
of a masters degree in the U.S.
Scholarship recipients will have the opportunity to immerse themselves
in the rich educational environment of St. John’s, which was
founded in the 16th century, by reading in one of the following
subjects: Archaeology
and Anthropology, Classics,
Economics,
English,
Geography,
History,
History of Art,
Modern and Medieval Languages, Music,
Philosophy,
or
Social and Political Sciences.
