Application deadline
If you’re planning to apply for the Chevening Scholarship, there are two key steps: you must apply through the official Chevening application system and select the University of Bedfordshire as one of your course choices, and you must also submit a separate course application directly to the University of Bedfordshire.
For guidance in preparing your application for the scholarship, visit the Chevening website. The application cycle starts earlier than you may anticipate, around 1 year before you would start your university course, so early planning of your application is essential.
