Join us at Farewell 2024 for Chevening, Commonwealth and Marshall Scholars!
The Farewell event celebrates the achievements of Scholars from the Chevening, Marshall, and Commonwealth Scholarship scheme as they approach the end of their scholarship.
The event is an opportunity for Scholars from all three schemes to connect and network with fellow students from around the world. It is also a chance to look ahead to the exciting opportunities they will find as scholarship alumni.
There will be a full programme of activities during the day, including guest talks and panel discussions. We will share more information about the programme in the coming weeks.
Register now to book your place at Farewell 2024.
