Chevening scholarship information

[DBilal]

Dear all,

I applied for the Chevening scholarship for entry into a UK masters programme during the 2017-18 academic cycle, and have secured an unconditional offer from the Institute of Education, University College London as well. I realize that the scholarship is extremely competitive, so while I won't be too disappointed if I don't get selected, I do retain some hope of at least getting an interview call.

Interview notifications are supposed to be received in mid-February, and until then, I'll be grateful if members can provide any info they have about the scholarship process. Does anyone know the exact date when the interview notifications were sent last year? Also, does the interviewers panel consist of British nationals or is it a mix of British and Pakistani panelists? Any help will be really appreciated!

Thanks,
Chevening hopeful

Dear DBilal,

First of all congrats on receiving the UCOL by UoL.

The interview call normally are extended by 20th June and for this year the calls were also issued by that date. Infact, today is the first interview day at least at Karachi.

I am also hoping for the best too as I have been called for interview. Hopefully some alumni of chevening will dedicate their time to provide 2 cents for your further queries.

Regards,
