The Chevening Secretariat is now accepting applications for 2017/2018 Chevening Scholarships and some Chevening Fellowships via www.chevening.org/apply from 8 August until 8 November 2017.

Chevening Scholarships are awarded to individuals with demonstrable leadership potential who also have strong academic backgrounds. The scholarship offers financial support to study for a master’s degree at any UK university and the opportunity to become part of an influential global network of 46,000 alumni.

The call for new applicants follows the selection of some 1,800 scholars who won an award to study at a UK university this year.

These scholarships represent a significant investment from the UK Government to develop the next cohort of global leaders.

Speaking of the opening of the new application window, the Director of the Chevening Secretariat, Michael Scott-Kline, said: ‘Those who step forward to apply for a Chevening Scholarship are already demonstrating the kind of ambitious forward-thinking that typifies Chevening Scholars. The potential rewards for applying are unquantifiable. Not only do scholars receive a first-rate UK education which can open doors in their respective careers, they also join a strong global network — a network they will draw on and contribute to for the rest of their lives.'

Once succesfully selected, Chevening Scholars arrive in the UK where they experience the best Britain has to offer academically, culturally, and socially.

‘Scholars can choose almost any master's course at any UK university,' Louise Thomson, Programme Manager at the Chevening Secretariat said. 'As well as an unparalleled academic experience, scholars enjoy exclusive access to year-round opportunities to familiarise them with the UK, its history, institutions, customs, and people.'

'Recent scholars have taken in breath-taking views of the UK, experienced Britain’s heritage and history through its stately homes and castles, discussed international policy at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, and interacted with high profile academics, politicians, and even royals at a range of academic, cultural, and social events. Whether they're inside a lecture theatre or not, scholars are constantly learning.’

Applicants are reminded to check that they are eligible, and are urged to start applying for their courses as early as possible. The deadline for all Chevening Scholarships applications is 12:00 GMT on 8 November 2017, and the selection timeline is available publicly.

Michael Scott-Kline, Director the Secretariat, concluded saying: 'Applying – or encouraging a friend to apply – may turn out to be the best decision you ever make. Everyone who has ever benefitted from being a Chevening Scholar has one thing in common — they had the ambition to simply apply.'

Female opportunist spotted.

It's not like she will pass it; but she thinks that just because she is a female, it is for her.
Somebody that can not punctuate properly wants to get Chevening Scholarship.

Hahaha! no place like home.

Good one . Have we ever noticed something? Oyibo is always coming to Africa to pick the best with high IQ
. Finally the country will be left with those with lower IQ because they pick the best. Britain won't mind a foreigner being elected so far he can deliver.

What we have here is tribalism, brain drain and ediots leading the country. How can we develop? Anyway, let them take the best, afterall their talent will be wasted in Nigeria. Let me quickly look for who to recommend this to.

No offence with low performers, we need everyone. We complement each other, and have different talents, though not equal talents . Some have talent to be rocket scientists, others brain surgeons, artists, entertainers.

long thing

Of course. Are you just realizing this ? For a long while the western world has operated on the principle that people matter and intellectual capital is the greatest asset.
The American Civil War was not about slavery but about competing economic systems; between those who believed that machines were more important to the future of the US, and those who thought that human labour,slave or free, could do the job. In short, a referendum by arms on the issue of the Industrial Revolution.
After WWII, the US army gave visas to 1,600 former German scientists and moved them to America. These people went on to solidify and extend America's lead in rocketry, medicine, mathematics, physics, chemistry, computer science and other areas. They have continued this policy for decades, raiding Asia, Africa the middle East and even Europe for talent.

The black man is ruled by id.i.ots (like those in the NASS) who only think of buying cars and building houses abroad. They don't even realize the consequences of the brain drain

You're right bro. It is called Operation Paperclip. Russia and Britain tried to get jold of these German scientists as well https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Paperclip

It's disheartening that we in Africa think that mineral resources are true resources. People are the true resources . How could we have known that there is oil thousands of feet below if not for people?

Japan is 3rd largest economy in the world. They have no oil, steel or minerals . Yet they are richer than Saudi tgat pumps 10million barrels of oil a day. Some ediots will come and say they stole their resources in Africa.

Nobody stole our resources. We sold them for pennies. They will process and make 1000 times profit from your steel and oil after processing it. One barrel of oil we sell for $50 and fetch them $1000. After refining to produce petrol and others, there's still petrochemical component. The petrochemical component in one barrel alone can fetch more than $1000. These include insecticides, drugs, special chemicals , solvents. And they ship it all back to you !

Think my people. Let's invest in education in Africa and forget mineral resources.

Your 'advice' is one of the most ediotic things I have ever read on this forum. At no point in your excursive and incoherent response were you even close to anything that can be considered close to a rational thought or even 'friendly'. In other words, you can hold your 'advice' and shove it up yours
