SCHOLARSHIP DETAILS


Chevening Scholarships are the UK government’s global scholarships programme. Established in 1983, these scholarships support study at UK universities – mostly one-year Masters’ degrees – for students with demonstrable potential to become future leaders, decision-makers and opinion formers.
Applications for 2018/2019 Chevening Scholarships and some Chevening Fellowships are open. Please read the information on this page carefully prior to applying. Applications for 2018/2019 Chevening Scholarships and some Chevening Fellowships close on 7 November 2017.
In order to submit your Chevening Scholarship application, it is essential that you have the following ready:
  • Valid passport/national ID card
  • University transcripts and degree certificates (undergraduate, postgraduate)
  • Three different UK master’s course choices
You may also wish to submit the following optional documents if you already meet the requirements. You can submit your initial application without these documents, but you will have to upload them to your application by 12 July 2018:
  • English language test results
  • UK master’s university offer
Only documents in PDF format can be uploaded to the online application system, and documents cannot be over 5MB in size.
Please note that if you are eventually conditionally selected for a Chevening Scholarship, it is essential that you provide evidence that you meet the Chevening English language requirements and that you have at least one unconditional offer from an eligible course before 12 July 2018 in order to remain in the process.

    • Apply to three different eligible UK university courses and have received an unconditional offer from one of these choices by 12 July 2018
