Scholarship

The Durham University scholarships program is now accepting applications from international students. The Ruth First educational trust provides fully funded scholarships to African students studying at Durham University at the postgraduate level. It is easy for students to begin their study in a variety of masters-based courses offered by Durham University, except for the MBA.

Providing fully funded UK scholarships in the region contributes greatly to the region's social, educational, and economic development. Furthermore, they have a wide developmental impact, both inside and outside southern Africa, beyond their value to individuals.

I have clearly described all things in this blog, so please read carefully and apply as soon as possible. The applications are open currently, so prepare your documents and apply before the deadline. I am sharing the latest updates about the fully funded Scholarships program through our Telegram group. Please join if you are new to our blog.
