Chevening Scholarship for Russia

Chevening is the UK Government's prestigious international scholarships programme. Funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, and partner organisations, Chevening offers exceptional future leaders the opportunity to further their education in the UK. The scholarship provides a fully funded world-class education for a one-year master's degree, exclusive networking opportunities, and the chance to immerse yourself in the UK's diverse culture. For the 2026-2027 academic year, applications are only accepted from Russian nationals who are resident in a country other than Russia, due to security considerations and recent Russian legislation. The scholarship is designed for outstanding individuals with leadership potential who can make a measurable impact in areas like climate action, economic prosperity, and conflict recovery.
