About This Opportunity

The Commonwealth Shared Scholarship is jointly funded by the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission (CSC) and Imperial College London to support students from eligible Commonwealth countries. This scholarship is designed for candidates who would be unable to afford to study in the UK without financial support. The scholarship provides comprehensive funding including full tuition fees, living stipend, airfare, and various allowances. Recipients must be citizens of or have refugee status from an eligible Commonwealth country and must commit to returning to their home country within one month of completing their studies. The program aims to support talented individuals who will contribute to the development of their home countries upon return. For the 2025/26 academic year, Imperial is offering 2 awards for two specific master's programs in Chemical Engineering and Materials.
