Chevening Scholarship - Afghanistan

Chevening is the UK government's prestigious international scholarships programme, funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and partner organisations. The programme offers exceptional future leaders from Afghanistan the opportunity to pursue fully funded master's degrees in the UK. Chevening Scholarships provide a world-class education, exclusive networking opportunities, and the chance to immerse in UK's diverse culture. The scholarship is fully funded and covers university tuition fees, a monthly stipend, travel costs to and from the UK, an arrival allowance, a homeward departure allowance, the cost of one visa application, and a travel grant to attend Chevening events in the UK. The programme aims to build a global network of leaders and decision-makers making measurable impact in areas like climate action, economic prosperity, and conflict recovery. Applicants from Afghanistan must arrange their own travel to the UK, potentially through third countries, as the FCDO is unable to assist with arranging or facilitating travel from Afghanistan. All applications must be completed via the online application system and applicants must meet specific eligibility criteria including work experience requirements.
