Funding

What the funding actually covers

Fully funded master's awards typically cover tuition, a monthly living stipend, return flights and insurance, sometimes with a settling-in allowance. Partial awards are usually tuition-only reductions. The distinction matters most for one-year programmes, where living costs can exceed tuition.

Eligibility

Eligibility patterns to check first

  • Work-experience requirements are common on government awards and rare on university awards.
  • Return-home commitments apply to most government-funded master's programmes.
  • Many awards require an offer of admission by a stated date, often several months after the scholarship deadline.
  • Some awards exclude applicants who already hold a qualification at the same level.
  • Language test validity periods frequently expire before enrolment and must be planned around.
Deadlines

How the deadlines work

Government master's awards close from October to January for entry the following autumn. University awards cluster from January to April. Both are usually earlier than the course application deadline for the same intake.

Applying

Application advice for this search

  1. Decide on a small number of target awards and tailor each application rather than submitting many generic ones.

  2. Confirm whether the award needs an offer first, which moves your real deadline months earlier.

  3. Request references early and give referees the specific selection criteria.

  4. Write to the award's stated criteria explicitly rather than to a general personal statement format.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Which master's scholarships are fully funded?

Chevening, Fulbright, Erasmus Mundus, DAAD, Australia Awards, MEXT and the Swiss Government Excellence Scholarships are the largest fully funded routes. Each restricts eligibility by nationality, so filter by your own citizenship first.

Do I need work experience for a master's scholarship?

For government awards, usually yes. Chevening requires around two years and several development-focused programmes require more. University-funded awards typically assess academic merit and do not require experience.

Can I apply for more than one scholarship at once?

Almost always yes, and you should. The main restrictions are on holding two awards simultaneously, not on applying, though some programmes require you to declare other applications.
