The deadline for
Gambian applications for UK Chevening Scholarships, the prestigious global
scholarship programme run by the UK Government has recently been extended.
Every year the
British High Commission to The Gambia sends two Gambian students to the UK for
a fully funded one year masters degree programme at a university of their
choice. (There are currently two Gambian
students in the UK studying advanced economics at the University of Edinburgh
in Scotland.)
The deadline has
just been extended to 02nd January 2013 meaning potential students
now have more time to apply. Students
must pass an English Language Test before they will be awarded a
scholarship.
