Beit Trust Postgraduate Scholarships are awarded annually to graduates from Malawi, Zambia, or Zimbabwe who are residents of those countries and are nationals of those countries during the 2022/2023 academic year.

Beit Trust has partnered with universities. As a result, the Trust is able to share expenses and grant more scholarships. Beit Trust Postgraduate Scholarships are therefore only available to candidates who have been accepted into those universities. Beit Partnership University acceptance is a prerequisite for applying for a scholarship from the Trust.

Its Postgraduate Scholarships are awarded to recipients at a partner university in South Africa or the United Kingdom, for study in a program of their choice, according to the nation’s needs. The length of a taught master’s degree is typically one year in the UK, and two years in South Africa. University partners in the UK include Edinburgh, Cambridge, Leeds, Glasgow, Oxford, and Strathclyde. Three South African partners are currently active: Stellenbosch, Rhodes, and UCT.

As a result of substantial academic partnerships with leading institutions, the Trust granted 18 new Scholarship awards at British and South African universities in 2021. It offers only Postgraduate Scholarships to South African students. They do not grant scholarship awards for undergraduate work and their postgraduate focus is on Master’s Degree programs.

They do not grant scholarship awards for Ph.D. research ab initio. Only under special circumstances, and for Beit scholars of exceptional merit, will the Trustees give consideration to offering support to Ph.D. level. The Trust does not give consideration to candidates for MBAs.

The subsequent round of Beit Trust Postgraduate Scholarships will be granted for the academic session starting September 2022 for universities in the United Kingdom; and January 2023 for universities in South Africa.
