Chevening is the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) scholarship scheme, aimed at future leaders, opinion formers and decision-makers. The programme is managed by the British Council worldwide, supporting over 2,300 international students annually to study in the UK.
The Chevening Scholarships scheme is administered by us on behalf of the British Embassy in Amman. The programme began in 1984 and has supported over 300 Jordanians to date, from both the private and public sectors. Many have returned to assume senior positions in Jordan.
The aim of the British Chevening Scholarship Programme in Jordan is to offer an opportunity to young and dynamic Jordanians, who wish to study or train in the UK, to achieve their goals by providing financial assistance.
Scholarships are normally awarded for post-graduate courses, i.e. Masters degrees, but applications for short courses of three months duration or more, are also considered. The Programme does not offer scholarships for undergraduate or PhD studies and does not support medical (e.g. Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy), science (e.g. Physics and Mathematics) and English language and Literature Studies. The scholarship normally covers course fees and living expenses.
If you wish to apply for a scholarship, please follow the following:
- Access the Information, Condition, Guidance and Application notes and read carefully before completing the application form
- Complete the on-line application form.
Please note that only on-line applications will be accepted and incomplete applications will not be considered.
