Chevening Scholarships are designed to fully cover the costs associated with studying a Master’s degree in the UK, including any additional expenses for international students.

Recipients typically receive:

– Full coverage of Master’s tuition fees
– Payment for travel to and from the UK
– Payment for visa application fees
– A monthly living allowance (stipend) for accommodation and expenses, with a higher amount for those studying in London
– An ‘events travel top-up allowance’ to help cover the cost of attending mandatory Chevening events, often held in London

The total value of a Chevening Scholarship is usually around £30,000 for a one-year Master’s program, though the exact amount may vary based on individual circumstances and needs. Stipend amounts are reviewed annually.
