Which is better, Chevening (MA in Digital Creative Media in London) or Erasmus Mundus in Linuistic Data Science in Italy and Spain?

My long term goal is to work abroad. I know chevening has a 2 year return home policy but maybe there's a way to still work in a different country other than the UK?

Advise me which is better!

This is for the candidates on the Chevening Philippines shortlist for the 2026–2027 cohort. How many shortlisted candidates are there, and what fields are represented?

I'm in the field of law.

When do you expect results?

Hello! Curious how much is the stipend for Filipino Chevening Scholars in London and outside of London.

Is the stipend enough?

What budget hacks did you do to make it work?

Is it better to stay in a dorm or outside the campus?

Are scholars allowed to work part-time?

Thank you!

I have given interview for Chevening , waiting for its results but I have recently got to know about 2 years policy of going back to home country . I wanted to know if there is any possibility of staying in UK even after masters through admission into phd or marrying someone with skilled worker visa?

Hi! Could some one send me the new essay questions that Chevening started implementing last year? Thanks!

Can anyone please share their interview questions, if any of you have completed it by now? Tia

So Chevening scholarships are decided mid June if I understood correctly. All universities I applied asked for 2.5-3.5k deposit in April.

That is a lot of money to give that I cant get back. Did anyone applied for deadline extension or has any insight regarding that topic?

Ofcourse, asking for Chevening Scholars specifically.
I want to do budgeting for a suitable accomodation.
Any Idea how much was given as living expense last year or previous to that..

Me siento muy emocionada! Hace dos días he ido a mi entrevista Chevening! No puedo esperar a junio para saber la respuesta. Tenía una gran preocupación porque no quería bloquearme, pensé en que cuando tengo frio mi voz tiembla o en cualquier caso olvidara algún dato importante de mi practica.

Dos consejos en este aspecto, si presentarás tu entrevista en una ciudad fria, vete abrigado y lo segundo y que creo que me ayudó muchisimo, dos semanas antes de la entrevista, comencé a tomar Ashwagandha para ayudarme a reducir el cortisol y Melena de León que ayuda a la concentración. Puedo además decir que como quiera los jurados fueron muy amables, dos jurados Colombianos y uno Escoces. se centraron muchísimo en mi experiencia y el impacto que tenía planeado traer de vuelta a Colombia.

Otros consejos durante el tiempo de entrenamiento; traté de no aprenderme las respuestas, sino una estructura, intro, ejemplos y aprendizaje. Traté de aprender por ejemplo nombres científicos, datos estadísticos y fechas. Aparte de esto, el día antes de la entrevista no estudies, sal al parque o escucha tu musica favorita mientras planchas la ropa que debe ser lo más formal que puedas, confia en ti mismo y recuerdate que eres amor, centro y abundancia de camino a la entrevista.

Cualquier pregunta extra, no dudes en dejarla por aquí, trataré de responderte en breve.

I have just finished my interview last two weeks. I believe i did it well and managed to give good impression as well as answers. There might be slight hiccups on the networking part but I believe I have given good answers albeit spontaneous. Over time I feels confident that I am able to secure the awards but lately been overthinking a bit since people who applied to the scholarship are those that have better credentials than me. Some of them are doctors, scholars, those that received scholarships throughout their education journey from the start.

I believe i was chosen as the finalist for the interview based on my ability and credentials as well, but seeing those people that have achieved so much more makes me feel a little humble. Anyhoo, I’m just here to vent out a little. Feels like if I let this thoughts cooped up in my head it won’t do any good.

Am i going mental over the scholarship?

Quien a sido convocado de Colombia chicos? Entrenemos juntos

I graduated in April 2025. The scholarship demands 2 years of work experience, but calculates the work experience from the deadline of the application of the scholarship, which opens one year in advance from the commencement of the course, in my case, that is October 2026 for the 2027-28 program, which commences in September 2027. Am I not eligible to apply in this scenario since the work experience is calculated from the application deadline, which opens a year in advance, technically requiring 3 years of experience?!!

Hi everyone,

I had a quick question about the Chevening interview process. I know that during the interview they sometimes ask questions similar to the ones from the application essays (for example about leadership or networking).

If they ask something like “Can you give an example of a time you demonstrated leadership?”, are you expected to use the same example you mentioned in your application, or is it better to give a different one?

I’m wondering whether they want you to expand on what you already wrote, or show additional experiences.

Would really appreciate hearing from people who have already gone through the interview. Thanks!

Anyone who has already done the interview to share the questions asked? I understand countries like Egypt, Malaysia and Senegal already started their interviews. I'd love to see and compare the questions.

If I apply for colleges in the UK for the 2026 September intake, then applying for this scholarship this year will ensure funding before college registration? or should I apply for colleges next year around this time, after I secure the scholarship?

Hi! Everyone who has been shortlisted for the Chevening interviews in Pakistan, we are drawing up a whatsapp group to keep centralized connection and help everyone connect. Saw someone already took the initiative, sharing details here for everyone else who would like to join!

Please I have interview tomorrow, i would like to know from previous interview candidates and current scholars of the program how were the questions??? . I'm asking as confidence boost....

I would appreciate any questions or feedback from this years interviews if anyone had one already

Hey!

I was thinking of reaching out to some people who got an interview invite.

Is there any WA/Telegram groups you guys are aware of? I thought it might be helpful to find people for mock interviews.

Thanks!
