The scheme supports talented postgraduate students who could not otherwise afford to study in the UK and who are committed to contributing to the development of their home countries.
The scholarship covers full tuition fees, a stipend (living allowance), and additional benefits for eligible students from developing Commonwealth countries.
At the University of Hull, we have two scholarships available for students studying on the following programmes:
Tuition fees, living allowance and more
Postgraduate taught students
Students from low/middle-income Commonwealth countries
To be considered, you must be from an eligible country and hold an offer for one of the eligible University of Hull programmes. Full details and how to apply can be found on the Commonwealth Office website.
In addition to completing the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission's online application form, you also need to apply directly to the University of Hull for a place on one of the above courses. We advise that you submit your application as soon as possible. You need to make sure you have received your offer of a place on one of the courses by the start of February 2027.
Application deadline: Tuesday 8 December, 4pm GMT
