Selection Process The JJ/WBGSP uses the following process to review eligible scholarship applications from developing country nationals, with the aim of identifying 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 JJ/WBGSP 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.
