IOE-Commonwealth Commission Scholarships

The Institute of education at the University of London and the Commonwealth Commission are  offering two awards covering air fares, stipend and tuition for candidates from Commonwealth countries.


The programmes included in this scheme are:
Education and International Development MA
Education, Gender and International Development MA
Education, Health Promotion and International Development MA
Educational Planning, Economics and International Development MA
Development Education MA

Who can apply?
Candidates are normally expected to hold a first degree at either first class or upper second-class level. We will need to be able to confirm that candidates are sufficiently fluent in written and oral English to pursue their proposed studies immediately, as no pre-course English Language Teaching is available under these awards. Candidates who have already studied for one year or more in a developed country or who possess sufficient resources to self-fund are not eligible for an award.

You will be asked to certify in writing that you:
i) are a national of a Commonwealth developing country, and not at present living or studying in a developed country;
ii) have not undertaken studies lasting one year or more in a developed country;
iii) are yourself, or through your family, unable to pay to study in the United Kingdom;
iv) will return to your home country as soon as your award comes to an end. The commission will only consider requests to extend leave to remain in the UK post-award for those wishing to move from masters to PhD study. Strict conditions will apply.

How to apply
Please note that you will need to complete two applications at the same time:
1. Apply to the IOE, through the online application form.
2. Apply to the Commonwealth Commission through its online Electronic Application System (EAS).
Applications to both the IOE and the Commonwealth Commission must be made by Monday 3 March 2014.
