Karta Catalyst Scholarships

The students we work with face multiple barriers to opportunity, before and during their transition to higher education - from lack of mentors and confidence to financial constraints. As a result, many talented students will not realise their ambition of accessing high-quality higher education. That’s why we support them to manage these challenges and turn their ambition into a reality.

What we offer.



 

Through our Karta Catalyst Scholarships, offered in partnership with world-leading universities, students receive all the support they need to thrive at university. Including:

  • Application support

  • Funding for tuition and living expenses

  • Personal & professional development through university

  • Internship placements

  • 1-to-1 mentoring 

  • Career transition support 

Karta Scholars connect with their juniors for video mentoring

 

Fostering community leadership

Our experience has shown that, as role models, the Karta Catalyst Scholars have the power to positively impact their wider communities. Recognising this, the programme also integrates ‘give-back’ channels that enable Scholars to share their learnings with younger students in their home communities.
