UDEM Creative Talent Scholarship
Objective
The Universidad de Monterrey wants to be a participant and a factor of positive change in our country, through an education of academic excellence assisted with financial support received from private benefactors for high performance students.
What do you need to apply for a scholarship at CRGS?
- Have taken the College Board or PAA institutional admission test corresponding to each program (for foreign candidates we accept proof of results from other institutions for both the PAA and the SAT).
- Have been accepted for admission to UDEM in any of the courses of the School of Art and Design or the School of Architecture and Habitat Sciences. For more information about this process, please contact the Office of Attention to First Time Students, located in ESTOA, Level A, or by calling +52 (81) 8215 1010, or by writing to [email protected].
- Upon completion of the above items, the candidate must submit the following via e-mail to [email protected] by 12:00 noon on April 29, 2022:
Required documents
a) Portfolio of academic and/or professional work demonstrating your potential for the desired discipline.
- Maximum 20 sheets in PDF format
- Each work shown must have a technical data sheet (specifying measurements, dates, technique used, whether it was done under consultancy or on the author's own initiative, and data considered pertinent by the author).
- All the works shown in the portfolio must be of the authorship of each candidate, in case of plagiarism we will proceed to disqualification.
- The portfolio must be anonymous, so the candidate's name must be omitted in any part of the portfolio (in another document we will have all the necessary information). During the selectivity process, the Organizing Committee will be in charge of sending to the Selectivity Committee all the documents without any personal information that identifies the candidate so that the selection is totally anonymous.
- The portfolios may be used, with the author's permission, to promote the scholarship in future editions.
b) Resume in free format (maximum 2 sheets in PDF format).
c) Letter of intent addressed to the "Comité de Selectividad de la Beca al Talento Creativo 2022" where you state your interest, vocation and the reason why you wish to obtain the scholarship (maximum 2 pages in PDF format).
d) Two letters of academic recommendation. The letters should include the relationship of the recommender with the recommended person, how long he/she has known him/her and to which academic institution he/she belongs. The letter can be scanned or in electronic format, both in PDF.
e) Document with complete personal data: name, date of birth, address, e-mail address and contact telephone number.
f) Consent form for the use of Personal Data
g) Image Use Consent Form
These 7 documents must be delivered in the same folder or mail, and can be sent by WeTransfer, Google Drive or attached in an email to [email protected]
Selection process and decision
The Selectivity Committee will weigh the documents received and will notify the result of the pre-selection on May 9, 2022 by means of an official communication to the e-mail address provided by the participant.
