Application period opens for UK govt’s Chevening Scholarships 

Applications for Chevening Scholarships are open from today and close on November 7. Applications should be submitted via www.chevening.org/apply.
Chevening Scholarships are awarded to individuals with demonstrable leadership potential who also have strong academic backgrounds. 
The scholarship offers full financial support for future leaders to study for any eligible master’s degree at any UK university whilst gaining access to a wide range of exclusive academic, professional and cultural events.
There are more than 1,500 scholarships on offer globally for the 2018/2019 academic year. 
British Ambassador to Thailand Brian Davidson said that Chevening Scholars find themselves “immersed in that world, and emerge having grown academically, professionally and personally as a result of their time in the UK”. 
The role that Chevening Scholars and Chevening Alumni play in building bridges between countries is as important now as it has ever been, he said.
“Becoming a part of the Chevening network instils a strong sense of pride and responsibility. I’ve personally seen how this opportunity is able to transform lives,” he added.
