Alumni Advisory Panel

The Alumni Advisory Panel provides a forum for Commonwealth Alumni to shape the future of Commonwealth Scholarships and support the next generation of Scholars to thrive.  

By sharing their varied experiences and specialist knowledge, panel members play a pivotal role in enhancing CSC activities and ensuring the programme remains focused on the needs of Scholars across the Commonwealth. 

Each year, panel members are invited to consult on areas of the CSC’s delivery, including new activities and initiatives. You can read reports highlighting feedback and insights from all panel activities here 

Alumni Advisory Panel 2025-2027 

Appointed for a two-year term, these dedicated individuals represent the extraordinary breadth and depth of the Commonwealth Scholarships alumni community. Drawn from across the Commonwealth and representing a variety of Scholarship and Fellowship schemes, each member brings fresh perspectives and a passion for making a lasting impact. 

Commonwealth Alumni Associations are invited to nominate an association leader or engaged member to represent the national alumni association on the panel.  

Applications to join the panel open every two years. Alumni will be notified via email when new applications open.  

‘Being a part of the panel has helped me to connect the importance of what is being done behind the scenes to coordinate the CSC and allowed me to extend myself further and see how important my role is to the next batch of CSC students.’

‘The Alumni Advisory Panel activities exposed me to some CSC activities I was not aware of before. I’m sure other members may have the same experience. It is good for us as alumni to be conversant with CSC activities to enable us give back to the system in every way possible.’
