Reference.
Applicants must submit two academic references with their application. If applying for funding from the Cambridge Trusts, applicants should submit an additional, ‘Personal Reference’. If necessary, it is acceptable for one of the academic referees to also write the personal reference. However, it is important that the personal reference is written by someone who can comment on the applicants non-academic abilities (particularly the applicant's leadership potential and social commitment, which are important criteria for the Gates Cambridge Scholarships) and ideally by someone who is also aware of the strong competition for places at Cambridge.
Please give below your candid assessment of the applicant’s personal and social qualities, achievements, future plans and any other factors relevant to the application for awards from the Trusts. The Trustees are looking for applicants with outstanding academic records but also with personal qualities that mark them out as potential leaders capable of making significant contributions to society. Unqualified praise, without due evidence to support it, is unlikely to help the Trusts identify the best candidates for these awards. The Trustees attach the greatest importance to the personal reference, warmly thank referees in advance for their help and apologise that the number of applications prevents them from acknowledging receipt of this reference.
Are the applicant’s qualifications appropriate for the course of graduate study or research at Cambridge, and in what ways will the proposed study be relevant to the need of the applicant’s country?
In not more than 300 words, plus a brief summary, please give below your candid assessment of the applicant’s academic merit and potential, together with comments on his or her social commitment, achievements and future plans. Leadership potential and a commitment to help society will be as significant as academic merit in identifying and short-listing the best candidates for awards from the Cambridge Trusts.
Please provide below a short summary/précis of your full assessment.
