Chevening Scholarships

Chevening Scholarships are the UK government's global scholarship programme, funded by the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) and partner organisations. The programme makes awards to outstanding scholars with leadership potential from around the world to study postgraduate courses at UK universities. Chevening scholarships are open to applicants from over 160 countries and territories around the world, looking to study an eligible one year taught master's degree at a UK institution. The scholarship is awarded to individuals who demonstrate exceptional academic merit, professional achievement, and leadership potential. Recipients are required to return to their home country for at least two years after their scholarship ends, contributing to the development of their nations. Qualifying recipients of the scholarship will receive the award in the form of a tuition fee discount at Keele University.
