Brief Description
Commonwealth Master’s Scholarships are for candidates from low and middle income Commonwealth countries, to undertake full-time taught Master’s study at a UK university. Funded by the UK Department for International Development (DFID), Commonwealth Master’s Scholarships enable talented and motivated individuals to gain the knowledge and skills required for sustainable development, and are aimed at those who could not otherwise afford to study in the UK.
Eligibility To apply for these scholarships, you must: • Be a citizen of or have been granted refugee status by an eligible Commonwealth country, or be a British Protected Person • Be permanently resident in an eligible Commonwealth country • Be available to start your academic studies in the UK by the start of the UK academic year in September/October 2020 • By September 2020, hold a first degree of at least upper second class (2:1) honours standard, or a second class degree (2:2) and a relevant postgraduate qualification (usually a Master’s degree).
