Applicants can apply for scholarships to both Preferred and Partner Programs. The process to apply to a Preferred Program and a Partner Program differs:
To apply for a scholarship to attend a preferred program, applicants would use the application form available on the Joint Japan World Bank Graduate Scholarship Program website.

If chosen for a JJWBGSP scholarship, the applicant will be unable to transfer the scholarship to another master degree program.

PROCEDURE FOR SELECTING THE WORLD BANK GRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS

The JJWBGSP uses the following process to review eligible scholarship applications from developing country nationals, to identify the candidates with the highest potential, after completion of their graduate studies, to impact the development of their countries.

Two qualified assessors independently review each eligible application and score the application on a scale of 1 to 10, taking into account four main factors and the degree of cohesion among them:

  • Quality of Professional Experience (30% weight)
  • Quality of Professional Recommendations (30% weight)
  • Quality of Commitment to your Home Country (30% weight)
  • Quality of Education Background (10% weight)

The JJWBGSP Secretariat uses the average score of the two assessors and the following criteria to select the finalists:

  • Maintaining a reasonably wide geographical distribution of awards
  • Maintaining a reasonable distribution of awards across gender
  • Unusual circumstances/hardships, when assessing the employment experience and other aspects of an application;
  • Giving scholarships to those applicants who, other things being equal, have limited access to financial resources for graduate studies abroad.

The JJWBGSP Secretariat presents the finalists for the preferred program scholarship to the Joint Japan World Bank Graduate Steering Committee (composed of members of the World Bank Board of Directors and World Bank management) for approval. The finalists for partnership scholarship are presented for approval on a rolling basis throughout the year, matching the JJWBGSP Partner university’s admission cycle. In all cases, winners are notified soon after the JJWBG Steering Committee approval.
