The Association of Commonwealth Universities is offering The Queen Elizabeth Commonwealth Scholarships (QECS)  which provides the unique opportunity for persons to study a two-year Master's degree in a low or middle-income Commonwealth country. 

Aimed at students who are committed to creating change in their communities, the scholarships are a life-changing opportunity to experience a new country and culture, to broaden horizons, and to build a global network that will last a lifetime.

Each year there are two opportunities to apply for QECS – cycle 1 opens in November/December and cycle 2 opens in March/April.  Persons only need to submit one application, but can apply more than once if there is another country that they are interested in studying in.

What does the scholarship cover?

  • Fully-funded tuition fees
  • Living allowance (stipend) for duration of award
  • Return economy flights to host country
  • One-off arrival allowance
  • Research Support Grant (on request only; subject to approval)

Applications are now open and will close on 10 January 2024.
