Yes, you can find fully funded scholarships that cover both tuition fees and flight tickets for master’s study abroad, especially in the UK. The Chevening Scholarship is a great example for UK-bound students. Be sure to check the eligibility and deadlines for each program and apply to several to improve your chances.

Yes, some scholarships and funding options do include airfare or travel tickets.

- Commonwealth Master's Scholarships typically cover approved airfare to and from the UK.
- Chevening Scholarships usually provide funding for tuition, living expenses, and airfare.
- Some universities also offer specific travel bursaries, such as the University of the Arts London Travel Bursary for eligible students.

These awards are competitive and have specific eligibility criteria, which are subject to change. If you need help identifying scholarships that fit your profile, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.

Yes, there are scholarships in the UK for master's students that can cover tuition fees and, in some cases, accommodation or living expenses.

- Chevening Scholarships: Fully funded by the UK government, covering tuition, flights, and accommodation for one-year master's programs.
- University-specific scholarships: Some universities offer full tuition scholarships and, occasionally, a monthly maintenance grant. Examples include the Global Impact Scholarship at Loughborough University and the Postgraduate Sanctuary Scholarship at the University of Westminster.
- Commonwealth Shared Scholarship Scheme: Covers full tuition and provides a maintenance stipend for eligible students from Commonwealth countries.

Scholarship availability and criteria are subject to change each year.
