Overview
Applicants through the Guyana Chevening route can apply for a fully funded 2027–2028 scholarship for an eligible one-year taught master’s degree in the United Kingdom.
Complete scholarship details
Chevening is the UK Government’s international scholarship programme. The current award covers tuition fees, approved economy travel to and from the country of residence, the UK entry-clearance application cost, arrival and departure allowances, a travel top-up, a monthly living stipend, and up to £75 toward required tuberculosis testing. The Guyana competition is open for the 2027–2028 cycle.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must be citizens of a Chevening-eligible country or territory and meet the current programme rules, including returning to the country of award for at least two years after the scholarship, having at least 2,800 hours of post-undergraduate work experience acquired over at least two years, holding an undergraduate degree that qualifies for UK master’s study, and having completed undergraduate study by October 2024 for this cycle. Applicants submit three eligible UK master’s course choices and must later secure at least one unconditional offer by the Chevening offer deadline.
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.
Verification notes
Verified on the current Chevening Guyana country page, application timeline, work-experience guidance, application guidance and funding FAQ. The Guyana page states that 2027–2028 applications are open and close 6 October 2026 at 11:00 UTC. No fixed stipend amount was added because Chevening states that monthly rates depend on study location and are reviewed.
