Eligibility

  • Commit to returning to your home country (country of award) for at least two years after your scholarship ends.
  • Have at least two years’ work experience, acquired after completing your undergraduate degree, equivalent to 2,800 hours.
  • Hold an undergraduate degree that qualifies you for a UK master’s programme. You must have finished your undergraduate studies at least two years before our application deadline, even if you have not yet received your certificate. However, you will need to have your certificate by the time of your interview.
