UK Government Chevening Scholarship 2027

Eligibility Requirements of Chevening Scholarship UK 2027

To be considered for the Chevening Scholarship UK 2027 Award, you must:

• Be a citizen of an eligible Chevening country 

• Hold an undergraduate degree equivalent to a UK 2.1 (‘upper second-class honours’).

• Have two years’ work experience.

• Have an unconditional offer for a Masters at a UK university 

• Have completed all components of an undergraduate degree that will enable you to gain entry onto a postgraduate programme at a UK university by the time you submit your application.

I already have a Master’s degree, can I still apply for Chevening Scholarship?

Yes, having a master’s degree does not prevent you from applying for a Chevening Award to study for a second master’s degree in the UK, as long as you can clearly explain why it will help you fulfill your career plan to influence positive change in your home country.
