Chevening
A UK Government international scholarships programme for one-year taught master's study in the United Kingdom. The official 2027/28 application window is scheduled to open on 4 August 2026 at 11:00 UTC and close on 6 October 2026 at 11:00 UTC.
A genuinely full package covers tuition at the international rate, a living stipend indexed to the host city, at least one return flight, visa and health costs, and often a settling-in or thesis allowance. Where a component is absent from the record, it is absent because the official source does not state it, not because it is assumed to be included.
Full awards are the earliest deadlines in the cycle, typically closing eight to twelve months before study begins. If a programme starts in September, a full-funding deadline in the preceding October or November is normal.
Check the funding components list rather than the headline label.
Confirm whether flights, visa costs and insurance are included, since these are the most common gaps.
Apply to a shortlist you can prepare properly rather than every award you are eligible for.
Plan for a funding gap between arrival and the first stipend payment.
It varies by provider. The strongest packages cover tuition, a living stipend, return travel and insurance. Some awards described as full cover only tuition. Read the funding components on each record and confirm on the official source.
They attract far more applicants than partial awards, but the selection is usually criteria-driven rather than purely competitive on grades. Meeting every stated requirement precisely matters more than an exceptional academic record.
Usually not. A small number of government awards include a dependant allowance, and it is always stated explicitly. Where a record does not mention dependants, assume they are not funded.
