What is the Chevening Scholarship?
The Chevening Scholarship is one of the most prestigious international scholarship programs in the world. Funded by the UK government, Chevening offers future leaders, influencers, and decision-makers from around the globe the opportunity to develop professionally and academically, network extensively, and experience the rich cultural diversity of the UK.
This scholarship covers all costs associated with studying in the UK, including tuition fees, a monthly stipend, travel to and from the UK, an arrival allowance, a departure allowance, and the cost of an entry clearance visa application. Additionally, Chevening Scholars have access to exclusive networking events, workshops, and a vibrant alumni community that spans across the globe.
Who Can Apply?
To be eligible for a Chevening Scholarship, you must meet the following criteria:
- Academic Requirements: You should have completed your undergraduate studies with a degree that qualifies you for admission to a postgraduate program at a UK university. This is typically equivalent to an upper second-class 2:1 honours degree in the UK.
- Work Experience: Applicants must have at least two years (equivalent to 2,800 hours) of work experience. This can include full-time employment, part-time employment, voluntary work, paid or unpaid internships, and even freelance work. This flexibility means that your unique journey can still make you eligible.
- English Proficiency: As the medium of instruction in the UK is English, you must demonstrate your proficiency in the language. This is usually done through recognised tests like IELTS, TOEFL, LanguageCert, Pearson PTE or by providing proof of having studied in English at the undergraduate level.
- Leadership and Networking Potential: Chevening is looking for individuals who will be future leaders and influencers. You need to show a sound track record of leadership or influencing in your home country, whether in your professional life, through voluntary work, or even in a personal capacity.
- Commitment to Return Home: After completing your studies, you must return to your home country for a minimum of two years. The goal of the scholarship is to support those who will contribute positively to their home country’s development.
