Commonwealth Master's Scholarships

Commonwealth Master's Scholarships are for candidates from eligible low and middle income Commonwealth countries, to undertake full-time taught Master's study at a UK university. The Commonwealth Scholarship Commission in the UK (CSC) provides the UK government scholarship scheme led by international development themes. Funded by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), Commonwealth Master's Scholarships enable talented and motivated individuals to gain the knowledge and skills required for sustainable development, and are aimed at those who could not otherwise afford to study in the UK. The scholarships cover all tuition fees, travel costs, and living expenses including a monthly stipend, warm clothing allowance, study travel grants, and child allowances for eligible scholars. Applications are made through national nominating agencies or selected non-governmental organisations, not directly to the CSC.
