Study level: PhD
Study abroad admissions for international students
Türkiye Bursları Scholarships
One application covers up to twelve programme choices, so use every slot.
Government of Ireland International Education Scholarships
Only for one-year programmes, so two-year master’s degrees are excluded.
Clarendon Fund Scholarships
Around 200 awards a year, all made automatically from the graduate applicant pool.
Faculty for the Future Fellowship
Applicants are judged partly on their commitment to teaching once they return home.
AAUW International Fellowships
The application asks directly how you will use the degree at home. Answer it concretely.
Aga Khan Foundation International Scholarship
The loan half carries no interest but requires a guarantor in your home country.
Fulbright Foreign Student Program
Placement is handled for you: the commission proposes universities rather than you applying to five yourself.
DAAD Development-Related Postgraduate Courses
German public universities charge no tuition, so this stipend usually covers the whole cost of study.
MEXT Scholarship (Research Students)
The research plan carries most of the weight. Contact professors early — six months before the deadline is normal.
Global Korea Scholarship (GKS)
The embassy track lets you name three universities; the university track names only one but faces less competition.
