About This Opportunity

The GREAT - Imperial College London Scholarship is a partial scholarship program offered in partnership with the British Council's GREAT Scholarships initiative. This scholarship provides financial support to outstanding international students from selected countries who wish to pursue postgraduate studies at Imperial College London. The scholarship is designed to make world-class UK higher education more accessible to talented individuals from France, Egypt, Ghana, and Nigeria. The award provides £15,000 towards tuition fees for a one-year full-time Master's degree program. Recipients must be passport holders and residents of one of the four eligible countries, have been classified as Overseas for fee status, and have received an offer of admission by the deadline. The scholarship is part of a broader GREAT Scholarships program launched by the British Council in partnership with over 70 UK universities to support postgraduate students from various countries. Successful scholars will be expected to meet informally with donors on occasions and submit annual progress statements.
