Since I am about to finish my undergraduate very soon, I am looking for some scholarship opportunity. I came across some and I would like to share three that I have come across.
First is the Chevenig Scholarship funded by Foreign and Commonwealth Office (UK) and partner organizations. This scholarship covers your tuition fees, accommodation, books and some few other expenses. It also covers a monthly allowance. However, the scholarship is for a duration of only one year. So, basically, if your desired graduate programme is for more than 1 year, you will have to pay for the extra period of study from your own pocket. This is where it got me to a lot of thinking.
If you are selected as one of the recipients, you can choose to study in any partner universities. This scholarship is not meant for only Nepali nationality. Students from other nationalities can also apply. Please check the list of eligible countries from their official website.
One of the main requirement for this scholarship is that you are required to have some years of working experience if you wish to apply for the scholarship.
This is just a snapshot. You can get extra information by following the link http://www.chevening.org/nepal
Second is the Mingma Norbu Sherpa Memorial Scholarship 2016-2017 offered by Lincoln University, New Zealand (and supported by WWF, Greater Himalayas Foundation USA and Outward Bound New Zealand). The scholarship is for students who wish to pursue their Masters in the fields of natural resource management, tourism and the environment. The deadline for applications is 31 August, 2015.
If you wish to know more, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Third is from University of Oregon who are offering full tuition scholarship for students from Nepal as a part of its global engagement to help rebuild Nepal after the devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake.
The scholarship is for both graduate or undergraduate student, in a field of study that the university believes will contribute to the reconstruction needs of Nepal.
Gratitude no. 7: I am grateful that I was able to get a scholarship for my studies.
Cheers!
