John Cabot University (JCU) and Hult International Business School (Hult) have renewed their partnership to expand global learning opportunities for students. As part of this collaboration, Hult is offering two full scholarships for JCU students to attend its prestigious Boston Summer Bootcamp. Additionally, partial tuition support is available for other JCU students who wish to participate. This initiative reflects both institutions’ commitment to international education and experiential learning, providing JCU students with direct access to Hult’s renowned business programs.
Hult International Business School is a globally recognized institution with campuses in London, Boston, San Francisco, and Dubai. It is accredited by AACSB, AMBA, and EQUIS and consistently ranks among the top business schools worldwide for international diversity and innovative education. Hult’s programs immerse students in real-world business challenges, equipping them with the skills and mindset to excel in today’s global economy.

Cohort 1: July 7 – July 25, 2025

Martina Oliveto shared her experience: “Four months ago, I was convinced that I would not pursue a master’s degree. However, thanks to the Bootcamp experience at Hult Business School and the collaboration with JCU, a new and incredible opportunity opened up for me. I applied for a master’s program, was accepted, and even received a high-range scholarship. Today, I officially confirmed my spot, and I will be moving to Dubai in October. I am truly grateful for this life-changing experience.”
Who is eligible to apply?
All JCU undergraduate students in their junior or senior year with a minimum GPA of 3.0 are eligible. For full scholarship consideration, students currently in their junior year (between 60 and 90 credits) are given priority. Freshman and sophomore applicants are still eligible to attend the program by either paying the full tuition fee or joining through the “Bring a Friend” offer, which means joining the Summer Bootcamp with a fellow JCU student, both receiving a 50% scholarship.
Will there be another chance to apply if I am not selected?
Yes, the Hult Bootcamp is expected to run annually. Students who are not selected may apply in the future.
Are meals included in the program?
No, students are responsible for their meals, though some meals will be part of the program activities.
What are the necessary documents for the application process?
The necessary documents are:
Will the outcome of the selection process be communicated to all the applicants, regardless of whether they won the scholarship or not?
Yes, the outcome of the selection process will be communicated to all applicants.
If a student was to win the full scholarship, would they need to pay the program fee upfront and then receive a refund, or will Hult cover the fee directly without requiring them to pay anything? How much does the campus insurance cost for the program?
Each winner will need to pay just a USD 500 fee to secure their seat in the program. This fee covers the mandatory health insurance while in the US. Additional costs include visa/ESTA fees, flights, and meals.
Can scholarship winners decide which of the two sessions of the Bootcamp (July 7-25 and August 4-22) to attend or does Hult choose it for them?
Students can choose their preferred intake.
Can scholarship winners select whether to attend the Boston or the London camp?
No, this opportunity is exclusively for the Boston camp.
Is it necessary to pay the $95 application fee when applying for the full scholarship?
