The aim of the prestigious British Chevening Scholarship scheme is to bring to the UK present and future leaders, decision-makers and opinion-formers. The British Council, in collaboration with the British High Commission administers these awards in Trinidad and Tobago.
The scholarships are for one-year postgraduate study at a British university and are offered to potential leaders, decision-makers and opinion formers who are likely to contribute to the political, economic and social development of Trinidad & Tobago.
Highly competitive and limited in number successful candidates must be able to demonstrate not only an outstanding academic record, but also notable contributions in their field. The committee will also look for evidence of clear personal objectives and a commitment to making an impact on the wider stage.
Candidates are strongly advised to make a formal application for a university place direct to the institution of their choice as soon as possible. Confirmation by an applicant of his/her placement at a British university is considered an asset by the selection committee at any stage of the selection process.
