Shannon College of Hotel Management - Banfi Foundation Scholarship

Banfi Foundation Scholarship

You will receive 10,000 USD (about 9,300 EUR) to fund your postgraduate studies at the School of Hotel Administration at Cornell University in New York. You will receive this sum as a one-off prize at the graduation ceremony of the Shannon College of Hotel Management; it is therefore intended to fund your next step and will not be paid out on a monthly basis. The prize is awarded by the Banfi Vintners Foundation, which is run by the Castello Banfi winery in Montalcino, Tuscany, and has a long-standing commitment to education in the hospitality industry.

Who can apply

• College: You are completing your degree at Shannon College of Hotel Management in County Clare, Ireland, which is now part of the University of Galway.
• Field of study: You’re studying hotel management.
• Achievement: Of all the graduates, you showed the greatest commitment to your hotel management degree.
• Nationality: All nationalities can apply.

How to apply

There is no separate application. The college chooses the recipient internally and presents the award at its annual graduation ceremony.
