Commonwealth Scholarship

Commonwealth Scholarships

Commonwealth Scholarships are given to talented individuals with the potential to make a positive impact on the global stage.

As part of the UK’s ongoing commitment to the Commonwealth, each year around 800 students are given the chance to undertake postgraduate degrees with UK universities.

If you are from a Commonwealth country and believe you could make a difference to the world but you can’t afford to fund your UK studies on your own, then you could be the ideal candidate for a Commonwealth Scholarship.

What is the Commonwealth Scholarship?

The Commonwealth Scholarship scheme is aimed at students from across the Commonwealth who would not otherwise be able to afford to study in the UK. By funding postgraduate studies in a range of different study formats, the scheme helps to support future innovators and leaders.

This historic award is the UK’s primary scholarship scheme focused on supporting British international development goals. It is designed to attract outstanding talent to UK universities whilst also supporting sustainable development overseas.

Who can apply?

To apply for a Commonwealth Scholarship, you must be a citizen or permanent resident of a Commonwealth country. You will still be eligible if you are a refugee or British protected person.

You also need to have an undergraduate honours degree of at least upper second class (2:1). If you wish to study a PhD, you will need an appropriate master’s degree too.

Finally, you must be unable to afford to study in the UK without the scholarship.

The eligibility criteria for each type of scholarship and fellowship vary. More information is available on the  CSC website .

What type of awards are available?

The Commonwealth Scholarships Commission offers:

   Commonwealth PhD Scholarships (for least developed countries and fragile states)

    Commonwealth PhD Scholarships (for high income countries

    Commonwealth Medical Fellowships

CSC Development Themes

All Commonwealth Scholarships which are funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) are offered under six CSC development themes .

1.       Science and technology for development 2.       Strengthening health systems and capacity 3.       Promoting global prosperity 4.       Strengthening global peace, security and governance 5.       Strengthening resilience and response to crises 6.       Access, inclusion and opportunity

There is no restriction on what you can study but the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission gives priority to applicants whose studies are most relevant to their development criteria.

What financial support is available?

 Most scholarships are fully funded which means that, as well as covering your tuition fees, you will also receive your airfare to and from the UK and a living allowance to support you while you are here.

How to apply?

Depending on which scholarship you are applying for, you may need to apply through a National Nominating Agency , a university , or a Non-Governmental Organisation . To find out how to apply for each of the scholarships, please visit the CSC apply page . 

What do I need to apply?

To begin your online application, you’ll need a scanned copy of your passport, your academic transcript, your existing university degree certificate, two references and, if you have one, your admission letter.

What is the deadline for applications?

Annual deadlines for applications are usually in December.  Check the page of the scholarship you are interested in at the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission website to see dates when they are announced for 2021/22.

Top 6 Ph.D. Scholarships in Malaysia

The Ph.D. scholarships in Malaysia grant students and prospective students the opportunity to have the effects of the costs of their tuition and fees negated on the finances of them and their sponsors.

Malaysia is considered one of the fastest developing economies in the world and some experts consider them to a certain degree a developed nation. The nation’s almost childlike stubbornness to the development of their education sector has seen the sector produce some outstanding results and this has been made possible in no small measure by the various Ph.D. scholarships in Malaysia.

Scholarships are a fantastic means for students to achieve their primary goals of being educated in the easiest way possible, for this reason, we have shown students and prospective students how to qualify for the Canadian Scholarships for Ph.D. students and win .

While scholarship opportunities are not limited to just Ph.D. students, there is a myriad of scholarship opportunities for other types of students, for example, there are opportunities for MBA students to study abroad on a grant worth $137,890.

Also, for those who have set their minds to study in one specific nation such as say the UK , there are scholarships for MBA students that are currently available to be maximized by students. While we are still at it, for those who are not Ph.D. students but are still willing to study in Canada, there are Canadian scholarships that are available to be maximized by students to ease the strain on their finances.

While for those who want to maximize the benefits of living in the 21 st century with all of its technological strides, there are MBA scholarships that are available to be maximized to their fullest potential by online students .

Now, I know most of you are thinking, but is it only for those students exploring the option of furthering their education beyond the BSc. level that can enjoy scholarships?

Well, my answer is no, as there are a plethora of scholarships that are available to BSc students such as the numerous scholarship programs that are available to international students studying in Japan, not forgetting that there are still opportunities to be maximized by international students by applying for the scholarship programs that are presented to them by Finnish Universities.

How to get any of the Ph.D. Scholarships in Malaysia?

After the completion of the master’s programs by students, some want to further their studies by pursuing their degrees in their respective Doctor of Philosophy Ph.D. programs. This is a massive decision that any student can make owing to the amount of time and resources that is expended in the pursuit of the research programs.

One big obstacle to the achievement of students’ goals in the actualization of their dreams is in the form of the costs the programs have on the pockets of students, especially for those who are self-financing. But one major means for students to combat the strain on their finances is qualifying for any of the various Ph.D. scholarships in Malaysia is getting admission into any of Universities in Malaysia.
