Welcome to Chevening Scholars Testimonials. These are true, first-hand accounts of scholars' experiences and they paint a vivid picture of what it is like to study in the UK.

Comments from Argentine Chevening scholars:
I can say, without any doubt, that the experience of having studied in the UK thanks to a Chevening scholarship represented – and indeed represents – a turning point both in my personal and professional life.

Mr Nilson Barreto Jnr - University of Southampton
I always wanted to study abroad and the Chevening Scholarship, which is sponsored by the Foreign Commonwealth Office (FCO) and managed by the British Council, gave me the opportunity of making my dream come true.

Fabian is from Albania and is studying International Banking and Insurance (LLM) in the capital.

Looking Back At My Chevening Year
I couldn't have spent a wonderful year at the London School of Economics if I hadn't got a Chevening scholarship. I was determined to try for a scholarship and so deferred my admission for a year - which turned out to be the correct decision.

No Longer The Invisible Woman!
In 2002, I was awarded a Chevening scholarship. I had been working in a small non-profit organization which worked on local development, especially with fishermen and fisherwomen in the State of Bahia, Brazil. After many hours of internet research, I decided to apply to the MSc in Anthropology and Development at LSE.
