Most scholarships are for postgraduate study for one year.
Candidates for British Chevening Scholarships are selected by British diplomatic missions overseas with preference being given to postgraduates or those already established in a career. The scholarships are administered overseas and in the UK by the British Council. Further enquires about the scholarship should be made to the British Council in the applicant s home country. Applicants who wish to hold such awards at Oxford must apply independently for admission to the University through the Graduate Admissions Office. Enquiries about such awards should be addressed to the British Council in a student s home country.
