UK Scholarship Deadlines 2026 — Complete Calendar for Nepal

Yes, you can apply for multiple scholarships simultaneously. However, if you receive more than one offer, you will need to choose one as most scholarships cannot be combined.

Yes. Nepal receives a Chevening allocation each year. Chevening (UK FCDO funded, chevening.org) covers full tuition, a living stipend, return flights, and visa costs for a one-year master's degree.

The Commonwealth Scholarship covers approved university fees, a living stipend, return airfare, and (for PhD) a thesis allowance. Applications from Nepal are submitted through the University Grants Commission (UGC), not directly to the CSC.

The GREAT Scholarship offers a partial award of at least £10,000 towards tuition fees for a one-year UK master's programme, jointly funded by the British Council and participating universities (great.gov.uk, 2026).

Yes, you can apply for Chevening, Commonwealth, GREAT, and university merit scholarships simultaneously. If you receive more than one full offer, you will typically need to choose one, as most cannot be combined.

No — Chevening requires a minimum of 2 years of work experience gained after your undergraduate degree. Internships and part-time work during studies do not count towards this requirement.

Chevening opens around August with a November deadline. Commonwealth nominations (via UGC) typically open October–December. GREAT Scholarship applications usually open November–February, managed by each participating university.

Many are automatic based on your academic grades and require no separate application, though some universities request a short form. Always confirm directly with your chosen university's international scholarships office.
