Applications for the UK Government’s Chevening Scholarships now open
Applications for prestigious Chevening Scholarships to study in the UK are open from 4 August to 6 October 2026.
The programme offers fully funded master’s degrees at UK universities to individuals ready to join a global network of future leaders, equipped with world-class knowledge, UK connections, and shared values to address global challenges and drive sustainable development in their communities and beyond.
For more than 40 years, Chevening has attracted hundreds of thousands of applications globally. Successful applicants are individuals who share our vision for building a more resilient, prosperous and sustainable future, and can clearly demonstrate outstanding leadership, influence, and networking skills through compelling, evidence-based examples.
David Thomas, British Chargé d'Affaires to Thailand, said:
"Since 1983, Chevening has supported generations of Thai leaders to develop the knowledge, skills, and international networks needed to create positive impact in their communities and professions.
Today, Thai Chevening alumni are making valuable contributions across a wide range of sectors, including education, research, business, public service, social development, and innovation.
We are looking for individuals who have a clear vision for how they can contribute to addressing the challenges and opportunities facing Thailand and the wider world. If you believe a UK education, global perspectives, and lifelong connections with the UK can help you achieve that goal, I warmly encourage you to apply."
Prospective candidates can submit their applications via chevening.org/apply.
Before applying, candidates are strongly encouraged to familiarise themselves with Chevening’s vision and the resources available at chevening.org/vision and assess whether they are ready to present a competitive application.
