Michel David-Weill Scholarship

The Michel David-Weill Scholarship provides funding (including living expenses) for outstanding UCLA Seniors to study for two years for a Master’s degree at Sciences-Po in Paris.

Candidates must:

  • Be a US citizen currently enrolled as an undergraduate senior at an eligible Sciences Po partner institution
  • Have a 3.7 or higher GPA and be aged19-25 without a doctoral degree
  • Be accepted to an eligible Sciences Po master’s program

Prior knowledge of French is not required, as the majority of programs offered at Sciences Po are taught in English, with French tracks or bilingual tracks offered for some programs.

Candidates are selected on the basis of their academic accomplishments and capacity for critical analysis as well as demonstrated history of leadership and a proven commitment to community.

UCLA can nominate one student each year. You must apply concurrently to the MA program at Sciences-Po by late October. 

UCLA’s campus deadline is October 1, 2024.

To apply for our campus nomination, submit your CV, transcript, personal statement, and writing sample to the CSSE by October 1.
