Opportunity description
The Government of the United Kingdom is offering the Chevening Scholarship 2027–2028 for applicants from Jordan, one of the leading fully funded international scholarships for pursuing a one-year master’s degree at an eligible UK university.
The scholarship aims to support individuals who demonstrate strong leadership potential and have a clear future plan to create a positive impact in their communities.

According to the official timeline for the 2027–2028 cycle, applications opened on August 4, 2026 and will close on October 6, 2026 at 11:00 AM UTC, while studies in the United Kingdom are expected to begin in September or October 2027.
