Annual BOMC Scholarship

The Baronial Order of Magna Charta (BOMC) created a special scholarship program at a renowned American Law School for a student of high merit who has studied the principles of Magna Carta. The recipient is also expected to be a leader in future efforts to emphasise the importance of Magna Carta. The scholarship is awarded jointly in the name of the Magna Carta Trust and The Baronial Order of Magna Charta.

Education and Resources

The MCT's 800th Anniversary Committee produced and pulled together a wide range of educational resources to help people of all ages learn more about the history and relevance of Magna Carta. Most of these resources are still available online and can be accessed here.
