Overview
Applications are open for the 2027–2028 Chevening Scholarship for eligible applicants from Belize, supporting one-year taught master's study in the United Kingdom.
Complete scholarship details
Chevening is the UK Government's fully funded international scholarship programme for one-year taught master's degrees in the UK. Standard scholarship coverage includes tuition fees, approved economy travel to and from the country of residence, arrival and departure allowances, the cost of one UK entry-clearance (visa) application, a travel top-up allowance, a monthly living stipend, and up to £75 toward TB testing where required. The country page notes that there is no UK visa-processing centre in Belize; selected scholars may need to travel to another country for their visa application, with limited discretionary reimbursement potentially available for some travel costs.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must be citizens of a Chevening-eligible country or territory and meet the current eligibility rules, including at least 2,800 hours of post-undergraduate work experience acquired over a minimum of two years, an undergraduate degree that qualifies them for a UK master's programme, a commitment to return to their country of award for at least two years after the scholarship, and selection of three eligible UK master's courses. An unconditional offer from at least one course is required by the later offer deadline if selected.
Tips for this scholarship
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Check eligibility, funding coverage, study/project level and every required document before investing time in the application.
- Prepare transcripts, references, language tests, proposal/motivation statement and proof documents early.
- Separate the scholarship deadline from any university/program admission deadline; they may be different.
- Treat “fully funded” as a source fact only when the official provider explicitly confirms the covered costs.
