Offered by Michael Jacobs Foundation-Michael Jacobs Travel Chronicle
This cycle has closed. The date shown is the last one we captured. Most of these schemes reopen at roughly the same point each year, so this page is still worth bookmarking — but check the official link before planning around it.
The Michael Jacobs Foundation-Michael Jacobs Travel Chronicle Scholarship supports Indian students who wish to travel and write about their experiences. It honors the legacy of English writer Michael Jacobs and is offered by the Gabo Foundation and the Hay Festival Cartagena de Indias. The scholarship encourages exploration of new places, engagement with diverse cultures, and the development of travel writing skills among students across all academic levels.
Indian students at any study level—school, undergraduate, postgraduate, or doctoral—are eligible. Applicants should have a demonstrated interest in travel and writing, typically in fields such as literature, journalism, or travel writing. No income or grade thresholds are specified.
Preference may be given to those with prior writing or travel-related projects, though this is not mandatory.
Apply through the Gabo Foundation’s official page listed for the scholarship. Prepare a writing sample in English or Spanish that reflects your travel experiences or observations. Include a brief proposal outlining your intended travel and writing project.
Submit all required documents before the deadline stated on the official page. Late or incomplete applications are not considered.
