COMMONWEALTH SCHOLARSHIPS 2010 - 2011
United Kingdom
Under the Commonwealth Scholarship and Fellowship Plan, the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission in the United Kingdom is inviting Malta to nominate a number of candidates who are interested to pursue:
• 12 – 36 months of either a full time taught or a doctoral post graduate qualification;
• 12 months’ non-degree study in the UK on a Split-Site basis to aid the completion of a doctoral degree undertaken at a University in the home country.
1. Among the conditions emphasised by the United Kingdom Scholarship Commission, candidates should:
a. hold, by 1st October 2010, a first degree of upper second class Honours standard (or above) or a second class degree and a relevant postgraduate qualification, which will normally be a Master’s degree
b. be available to commence their academic studies in the United Kingdom by the start of the U.K. academic year in September / October 2010.
2. Awards are tenable at UK participating institutions, which can be viewed on the website below. Candidates are expected to state their preferred institution on the application form, but the final decision on host institution will be made by the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission in the United Kingdom. In recent years, placement of successful candidates has sometimes been delayed by the process of gaining admission to their host university. For this reason, it is strongly advisable that candidates submit independent applications directly to their preferred institutions. Where offers of admission have been obtained, these should be included with the application.
3. The commission will not offer awards to scholars close to completing a doctorate in their home country, though awards may be tenable to complete doctoral studies already underway in their home country or in the U.K.
4. Each applicant must submit 6 complete applications, accompanied by:
a. six copies (1 original and 5 copies) of the University / College transcript(s) and certificate(s), certified by the awarding body
b. one certified copy of birth certificate attached to the first (original) application
c. certificate of English language proficiency
d. six copies (1 original and 5 copies) of University Admission Letter
e. six copies (1 original and 5 copies) of Letter of Acceptance from UK supervisor (for Split-Site applicants).
5. Applications submitted without the complete documentation will not be eligible for consideration.
6. All awards must be tenable on a full-time basis.
The main selection criteria are the academic merit of the candidate, the quality of proposal and the potential of the candidate to lead in the pursuit of global excellence in research and knowledge.
Candidates nominated by Malta are not in any way guaranteed selection or placement.
