SABB SCHOLARSHIPS 2009 / 2010 – SAUDI BRITISH BANK – SAUDI ARABIA
SABB Scholarship Scheme @ Saudi British Bank
As one of the leading financial institutions in Saudi Arabia, The Saudi British Bank (SABB) has a deep routed interest in the longer-term development of the Kingdom and its people. Whilst its principal concern is to provide a full range of banking services for its customers, SABB also believes that well established companies and institutions should be involved in the educational development of the population as a whole.
The Directors of SABB have therefore set up The Saudi British Bank Scholarship Scheme to provide a number of educational scholarships to support the longer-term career growth of Saudi nationals. Under the Scholarship Scheme, SABB will fund selected candidates for Master of Business Administration (MBA) courses in the UK. These scholarships will enable young, enterprising Saudis to extend their educational achievements and so contribute to the future development of the country.
Key features of The Saudi British Bank Scholarship Scheme
• The scholarship will be offered for a one-year full-time MBA course, of relevance to the financial sector, at an appropriate British University. The course will normally begin in September or October each year and will last until August or September of the following year
• The Scholarship will cover the tuition fee, cost of accommodation, return travel to Saudi Arabia, and a daily allowance. Please note that funding from the SABB is for the candidate only and will not extend to any accompanying persons.

First of all i would like to thank all of you and your institution for providing the scholarship information. My name is Ali Ebrahim. I am from Ethiopia which is part of east Africa. I have Bachelor of Arts from Haramaya University in economics at 2008.Now I am working in one project which is owned by different germen Ngos and the Ethiopian government under the ministry of capacity building. The project focuses on four areas which are private sector development, university reform, TVET system development and quality infrastructure.
Now i am very interested to continue my further education (master) if i can get any scholarship that relates to my field.Eventhough, I have high interest to continue my further education i have not the financial strength to do so that. Even it is very difficult in our country to have good daily life. SO i am very happy if you provide me with a scholarship any where. It may be in the fields of business adminstration, development economics, public adminstration, international trade, policy analysis and designing, macro economics and others
i am sure you will provide me any scholarship
With regards
