Chevening Scholarships: what the application asks for

Chevening Scholarships are fully funded and are for a one-year masters degree in the UK. You apply through the page for your own country or territory on chevening.org. To be eligible you need at least 2,800 hours of work experience, about two years of full-time work, gained after finishing your undergraduate degree. Full-time and part-time jobs, voluntary work and paid or unpaid internships can count. You choose three eligible UK masters courses, name two referees, and commit to returning home for at least two years afterwards. The application has four questions: leadership and influencing, relationship-building, studying in the UK, and your career plan. For the 2027 to 2028 scholarships the application window ran from August 2026 to October 2026, with the closing date set out on each country's page. Check your country's page for the current dates.
