Which UK scholarships can I apply for to do a master's as an Indian student?

For a UK master's, you can look at Chevening, Commonwealth Master's Scholarships, GREAT Scholarships and funding offered by individual universities. Availability depends on the academic year, course and institution, so check current details for each award.

Scholarships to Consider

Improving Your Chances

• Fully funded awards may cover tuition fees, living expenses, travel and other study costs, though competition is often intense
• Universities such as Bristol, Birmingham, Nottingham, Sheffield and Exeter offer scholarships for international students
• Merit-based university awards may be more accessible than prestigious national ones for academically strong students
• Strong academics, leadership, extracurricular achievements and a well-written application help, along with applying early

My Advice

Do not rely on one big scholarship. Shortlist a mix of national and university awards, verify eligibility and deadlines, and prepare transcripts, recommendation letters and a personal statement early so that each application is polished.
