Gates Cambridge Scholarship Webinar - Wednesday 4th June

This webinar is for international students from across North America and Latin America who are planning to apply to a postgraduate programme (master's or PhD) at the University of Cambridge from September 2025 and who are also interested in the Gates Cambridge Scholarship.

The Gates Cambridge Scholarship programme was established in October 2000 by a donation of US$210m from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to the University of Cambridge - this is the largest ever single donation to a UK university.

Each year Gates Cambridge offers around 75 full-cost scholarships to outstanding applicants from countries outside the UK to pursue a postgraduate degree in almost any subject available at the University of Cambridge. Approximately two-thirds of these awards will be offered to PhD students, with approximately 20 awards available in the US round and 55 available in the International round.

This webinar will cover the following:

  • the Cambridge postgraduate application process & entry requirements
  • how and when to apply (for both the course and the scholarship)
  • scholarship eligibility and criteria
  • selection process
  • the scholar community
  • application advice & life in Cambridge – hear from current Gates Cambridge Scholars

The Gates Cambridge mission is to build a global network of future leaders committed to improving the lives of others. It aims to achieve this mission by selecting outstanding scholars, providing them with financial and non-financial support at one of the world’s leading universities and facilitating community building at and beyond Cambridge.
