APPLICATIONS INVITED FOR CHEVENING SCHOLARSHIPS

REMINDER

“I was really pleased to receive the Chevening Scholarship as I had always thought it impossible for me to attend university and achieve a Degree.  Applying for a scholarship was one of the best decisions I have made in my life – not only have I been able to further my education but it has given me great life experience. 

“The Chevening team were very supportive and the scholarship has given me innumerable opportunities throughout my life.  I really hope others will take advantage of this life changing opportunity.” – Tracey Williams, St Helena Chevening Scholar (2002)

The Chevening Secretariat is accepting applications for 2016/17 Chevening Scholarships via www.chevening.org/apply – until Tuesday 3 November 2015.

Chevening Scholarships are awarded to individuals with strong academic backgrounds who also have demonstrable leadership potential. The scholarship offers financial support to study for a Master’s Degree at any of the UK’s leading universities and the opportunity to become part of an influential global network of 44,000 alumni.

There are approximately 1,500 Chevening Scholarships on offer globally for the 2016/2017 academic cycle, representing a significant investment from the UK Government to develop the next cohort of global leaders.

For more information, visit www.chevening.org/faqs for details on the eligibility criteria and award specifications – or contact Manager of the Governor’s Office, Sandra Sim, on tel: 22308 or email: sandra.sim@sainthelena.gov.sh

Chevening Scholarships are funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and partner organisations. The scholarships support study at UK universities – mostly for one year Master’s Degrees – for individuals with potential to become future leaders, decision-makers, and opinion formers.
