What is the eligibility criteria for fully funded scholarships that require work experience in the same field in UK for a Master's/Bachelor's?
It depends on the specific scholarship, but most fully funded UK master's scholarships that require work experience have strict criteria.
- Chevening Scholarship: Requires at least 2 years (about 2,800 hours) of work experience in your field. Accepts full-time, part-time, voluntary work, or internships. Also needs a bachelor's degree that meets UK master's entry standards, and a commitment to return to your home country for 2 years after study.
- Commonwealth Master's Scholarships: Generally expect relevant professional experience in your chosen field, a minimum 2:1 undergraduate degree (or equivalent), and a plan to return home after graduation.
Eligibility details and deadlines are subject to change each year. For personalized guidance on your profile, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
