How are Chevening Scholars selected?
All Chevening applications undergo a rigorous review.
Applications are first screened using our plagiarism tool, and then sifted and checked against our eligibility criteria.
They are then individually reviewed by independent reading committees who score each application against FCDO, Chevening, and regional objectives, and the potential of the candidate to meet those objectives.

Candidates are scored and a longlist is presented to the local British Embassy or High Commission, who interview and select final candidates.
