Eligibility

We are proud to support Chevening Scholarships, the UK Government’s global scholarship programme funded by the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and partner organisations.

These scholarships are awarded to outstanding scholars with leadership potential.

To be eligible for a Chevening Scholarship you must:

• Be a citizen of a Chevening-eligible country or territory.

• If applying for an award from an ODA-eligible country, be resident in an ODA-eligible country. This does not have to be the country of citizenship, but all applicants must show a clear intention to support their country of award.

• If you live in a European overseas territory, you may apply through the relevant Chevening award scheme for the European country of which you are a citizen.

• Commit to returning to your home country (country of award) for at least two years after your scholarship ends.

• Have at least two years of work experience (2,800 hours), acquired after the completion of your undergraduate degree.

• Hold an undergraduate degree that qualifies you for a UK Masters programme. You must have finished your undergraduate studies at least two years before the Chevening application deadline, even if you have not yet received your certificate.  However, you will need to have your certificate by the time of your interview.

• If you are conditionally selected for a Chevening Scholarship, you must have received an unconditional offer from at least one of these course choices by 17.00 BST (UK time) on 8 July 2027. We recommend applying to UK universities as soon as possible.
