The British Chevening Scholarships, funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (www.fco.gov.uk) (FCO), are prestigious scholarships that enable young students from abroad to pursue postgraduate studies in the United Kingdom. These scholarships are offered by the British Government in more than 150 countries, so that talented graduates and young professionals may become acquainted with the UK and gain new expertise for the benefit of their own countries.

Specifics vary by country of citizenship. Many state " Young professional in their early to mid career. Minimum of 2-years relevant work experience. Mainly employees of the Public Sector. " and are therefore more appropriate for alumni than for current students.
Countries without that qualifier, and therefore potentially available for graduating students, include:

Angola	Anguila	Antigua and Barbuda

British Virgin Islands	Cambodia	Cameroon
Canada	Cayman Islands	Cote d'Ivoire
