Guidance on completing African Fellowship and Chevening Scholarship applications
Please note: Applications are currently closed.
For both Chevening and African Fellowship applications, you must download and complete both the application and reference forms.
Guidance on applications
The application form asks you to detail your academic and employment record; however, we are also interested to hear about your involvement with your community including any voluntary activities. In addition, we are particularly interested to hear about the development challenges facing your community or sector. We would like you to describe the key challenges and would like to know how you think you could make a difference when you return home after completing the Fellowship programme.
Guidance for Referees
In addition to the usual information included in references, we are particularly interested in your views of the applicant’s academic and industrial aptitudes. In addition, we would like your opinion of the applicants understanding of the development challenges and their proposed support for their community/sector when they return. The reference you provide for the applicant is particularly important in the selection process.
Once completed, the forms should be emailed directly to the Admissions Officer (admissions@rac.ac.uk).
