How to apply
All applications must be made through the university at which you wish to study. You must check with them in the first instance for specific advice on eligibility and how to make an application, and for their own closing date.
The CSC expects all Commonwealth Shared Scholarship candidates to be nominated by a university, and to have completed an application form using our Electronic Application System (EAS).
Full help on how to apply using the EAS is provided in our guides, which should be read in full before making any attempt to use the EAS.
The EAS will close to applicants on 16 April 2014 and no further applications can be made after that date. Please note that some university closing dates may be before 16 April, and that some universities may require candidates to complete a university application form, in addition to the EAS.
All universities are asked to forward their nominations to the CSC no later than 30 April 2014 using the EAS. The CSC will not accept any applications which are not submitted via the EAS to a university.
