FURTHER EDUCATION PROGRAMME
Study for a Master's Degree in the UK
The Said Foundation is able to provide full or partial scholarships
for masters' degrees at universities around the UK depending on

to applicants. While we are able to provide full funding, we are
also happy to provide matching funds.
In addition, the British Foreign and Commonwealth
Office (the FCO) and the Said Foundation jointly fund up to 10 KRSF/Chevening

The Foundation can also consider distance learning courses and
