The Education Council assists students with the funding of their tertiary education. Its main functions are to deliver the Government's scholarship programme and to serve as a medium between the Cayman Islands Government and its students that reside both overseas and locally.

Overseas Scholarships

Scholarships are awarded solely to Caymanian students who meet the published minimum requirements, and have been accepted to colleges or universities that are approved by the Education Council. Each scholarship recipient is required to complete at least two years post-secondary education, either through the Associate Degree programme or the A'level programme, before applying for scholarships to go overseas.

Local Scholarships

The Education Council grants scholarships for study at the Community College of the Cayman Islands (CCCI), the International College of the Cayman Islands (ICCI) and the Cayman Islands Law School. The deadline for scholarship applications to these institutions has been set for the last Friday in June of every year.
