CHEVENING SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATIONS NOW WELCOME

Have you got an undergraduate degree, two years’ work experience and a burning desire to do a Master’s Degree?

Are you academically strong, with good leadership skills and a vision of how you see your role contributing to the future of the Cayman Islands?

Then you could be our next UK Chevening Scholar!

Applications for the 2025/26 academic year are now open until November 5th, 2024. The scholarship offers full financial support to study for any eligible master’s degree at a UK university. Applicants must be able to demonstrate why the chosen Master’s program would benefit their professional development while also contributing to the future of the Cayman Islands.

Since the programme started in 1983, over 57,000 professionals have advanced their careers through Chevening. For the 2025/2026 academic year, approximately 1500 awards are available globally, demonstrating the UK’s commitment to developing the leaders of tomorrow. We would love to see another Caymanian added to the strong list of alumni!

Kings College London, Cambridge, Warwick and Oxford are the names of just some of the universities in the UK who throw open their doors each year to Chevening Scholars.

The Chevening Scholarship also gives you the opportunity to network with like-minded people, experience the UK’s heritage and history, discuss international policy and interact with leaders at a range of academic, cultural, and social events.

Her Excellency The Governor, Jane Owen said: “The Chevening programme is not only a chance to elevate your career and develop your potential but it’s also an amazing opportunity to contribute to the future of the Cayman Islands.”

“As a Chevening Scholar, you will also be part of the global Chevening Alumni network. A network full of dynamic people who have shared the same experiences and can offer mentorship, advice and contacts long after you return home from your studies.”

Chevening Scholarships are part of the UK Government global scholarship programme, funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and partner organisations. They support study at UK universities for individuals who demonstrate potential to become future leaders, decision-makers and opinion formers.
