Funding for scholarship

Y

Dear all,
I would really appreciate if anyone can give any idea how i can get a scholarship to cover my LLM. Apparently I am offered the LLM admission at the University of Essex, but the offer did not include the tuition fee and accomodation. I am looking aorund to get scholarship to cover my tuition fee and accomodation as I am from a poor country with a small amount of income..

"...as I am from a poor country with a small amount of income."

The UK?

Have a look for similar posts back through the forum. Its a much asked question. You may find something useful said in the past.

Yothean, unfortunately you are highly unlikely to gain any sort of scholarship for a masters courses (particularly for law). If you are to obtain funding, it is most likely to come from your own country.

Try 'directly' asking Essex for a list of scholarship providers, and visit the British Council website as they also have scholarships for international students.

The only scholarship that I can think may apply to you is Chevening :

Try Googling: 'cambodia scholarships'

Just to add, most students from both developed and developing countries will have only a 'small amount of income' - which means everyone is competing for any funds that are available.

You may stand a better chance in the US, where there are more funds available.
