GREAT Scholarship UK

Study UK announces 15 scholarships for Pakistani students to study a postgraduate course in the UK, as part of the GREAT Scholarships 2024. Each scholarship is worth a minimum of £10,000 towards tuition fees for a one-year taught postgraduate course. Great scholarships are funded by the UK Government under the GREAT Britain Campaign and the British Council with participating UK higher education institutions. 

We want you to act as an ambassador for UK higher education by sharing your experiences and promoting the value of studying at a UK university. You may also be asked to attend a networking event with other scholars, to discuss experiences so we can capture perceptions of studying in the UK.
