As part of its commitment to deliver the Chagossian Support Package, the UK Government has announced a program of financial support for individuals of Chagossian descent wishing to study at Middlesex University Mauritius.
Middlesex University Mauritius is part of Middlesex University, and offers high quality qualifications respected by the British education system. The university campus is located on the west coast of the island of Mauritius. The university offers a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses in accounting, advertising, business, computing and law, as well as an international foundation programme. Find out more about the university on the Middlesex University Mauritius website.
As a scholarship recipient, you will benefit from full fee waiver, free university accommodation and contribution towards living expenses for a period of 1 year. Bursary awards for subsequent years of study will depend on the availability of UK Government funding and are not guaranteed.
To be eligible, you must prove that you were born in the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT)/Chagos Archipelago or that you are a descendant of someone who was.
If you are not a Mauritian citizen, you can still apply for the scholarship, but you will need to pay for your own travel expenses to Mauritius and obtain a student visa from the Mauritian government.
The number of initial bursaries available is limited. If more applications are received than the number of bursaries available, bursary recipients will be selected by Middlesex University Mauritius based on academic merit.
If you are interested in applying for a bursary, complete the Middlesex University Mauritius online form and someone from the university will be in touch with you.
Courses start in February 2023 and September 2023. If you wish to apply for a scholarship for a course starting in February 2023, you must register your interest using the online form by 10 January 2023 at the latest.
If you have any general questions about the bursary scheme or studying at Middlesex University Mauritius, contact Vanessa Ramchandar at v.ramchandar@mdx.ac.mu.
