tuition scholarships to Chinese MBA candidates to study in London.

Press Release Body: The London School of Business & Finance (LSBF) has announced the
launch of a brand new full tuition scholarship opportunity available exclusively to
Chinese applicants wishing to pursue a Master of Business Administration (MBA)
degree. The scholarship, offered in partnership with the Royal Bank of Scotland,
will cover all tuition fees for highly qualified professionals, entrepreneurs and
business leaders from the People's Republic of China, and will aim at bridging
international boundaries by providing Chinese business professionals with an
opportunity to study a globally recognised degree in one of the world's financial
centres.

Demonstrating LSBF's commitment to international business, the Royal Bank of
Scotland International Scholarship is highly selective, and is only limited to
students who demonstrate an excellent academic record, high level of English
proficiency, exceptional work experience, and a commitment to the development of
international business.

Two full tuition scholarships will be awarded during the 2008/2009 academic year,
one in each intake. With over ?1.6 million in scholarship funding awarded to
students in 2007, LSBF is committed to providing students with an opportunity to
pursue postgraduate education regardless of their financial standing.

The MBA programme taught at LSBF is awarded by the Grenoble Graduate School of
Business (GGSB), ranked among the top 50 schools in Europe by the Economist, and is
taught in English by industry leading professionals and academics. "The Royal Bank
of Scotland International Scholarship is an exciting venture for LSBF and the Royal
Bank of Scotland" says Aaron Etingen, LSBF Chief Executive Officer, adding that "it
is a way to provide students from China with a tremendous opportunity to study in
the city of London, obtain a prestigious globally recognised degree, and gain a
competitive advantage in the global business market".

A growing number of students from the People's Republic of China, coupled with
strong partnerships with leading institutions in the country, have led LSBF to
become one of the first education institutions of choice for Chinese students
seeking a foreign education. The school's diverse learning environment provides
students with an opportunity to develop cross-cultural understanding and
communication skills while gaining an invaluable insight into the future's leading
business practices.
