The three-month long assessment process for this year’s scholarships included four rounds: application form screening, English test (Axcela Test format), ability test (SHL Test) and an interview in English by human resources specialists.

More than 320 applications, distributed evenly among all majors like economics, business, social sciences, and science and technology, were received.

Starting with 10 scholarships and three university partners in 2001, AmCham has so far given away 755 scholarships.
