Below is an overview of the general scholarship selection and placement process:

  • Scholarships are promoted and advertised through Websites such as RocApply. 
  • Applications are checked and assessed against basic Selection Criteria in the country of application.  
  • Applications and supporting documents of candidates meeting the basic criteria are considered for interview short listing by in-country selection committees.
  • Candidates are interviewed.  
  • Those short-listed for interview are advised to start arranging the process of taking the English language test (IELTS) and score at least 6.5 and not less than 6.0 in all components, as this is a usual admission requirement of  all the Universities.  
  • Once a candidate is selected and on the Priority List, staff work intensively with the candidate and the universities to seek the most appropriate course of study. The priority list is a pool of potential candidates for placement and has more candidates than places available in any one year.
  • Candidates who cannot be placed in available scholarship schemes, for one reason or another, remain on the priority list for a maximum of 3 years.
  • Confirmation of the scholarship is given as early as possible, in order to give the candidate time to apply for a visa and prepare for travel.

When considering candidates: 

  • Priority is mostly given to applicants of particular merit taking into account academic ability, need, and development impact, leadership potential and personal qualities.
  • Preference is given to subjects that offer a high probability of future employment in the countries that we select candidates from and are of direct value to development.

Please note

  • Applications takes time so be patient while waiting for a final outcome and whether or not your application has been successful.
  • Applications from women and individuals from other particularly disadvantaged groups are encouraged.
  • Eligible applicants are welcome from all religious backgrounds and ethnic groups.
  • A scholarship, in most cases, will cover full tuition fees, maintenance stipends, visa cost and return airfares.
  • There is no application fee.
  • Submitting an Application Form does not in any way guarantee you an offer of a scholarship award.
