Yes, Chevening can fund an eligible full-time MBA in UK, but its MBA tuition contribution is capped at GBP 22,000. If your programme costs more, you must pay the remaining tuition fee above that limit yourself, so compare course fees carefully before you apply.

What the Scholarship Covers

Chevening is a UK government-funded award for a one-year taught master's degree. It covers tuition, approved travel, visa costs and monthly living support, and gives you access to a global professional network.

My Advice

Compare the fee of each MBA on your shortlist with the cap before you apply. If a course is priced well above GBP 22,000, work out how you would fund the gap. Remember that Chevening requires three eligible course choices, so pick MBAs that suit both your goals and your budget.
