Developing Countries Scholarships

Explore scholarship opportunities relevant to students from developing countries who plan to pursue undergraduate or postgraduate study. These awards may be offered by universities, governments, foundations and international organizations, and can support study in the applicant’s home country or abroad. Funding can vary: some scholarships cover tuition fees, while others may also contribute to living costs, travel, health insurance or research expenses. Eligibility is set by each provider and may depend on citizenship or residence, academic background, chosen subject, study level and financial circumstances. Before applying, read the official scholarship information carefully and confirm that your country, degree program and intended start date meet the requirements. Check which documents are needed, such as transcripts, references, a CV, a personal statement or proof of language ability. Note application deadlines and allow time to prepare materials. Scholarship Union’s Developing Countries Scholarships archive brings together relevant information to help students begin their search. Use each listing as a starting point, then verify current details directly with the scholarship provider, since funding conditions and deadlines may change.
