The King's-China Scholarship Council (K-CSC) PhD Scholarship is jointly funded by King's College London and the China Scholarship Council for Chinese students to pursue full-time PhDs at King's. King's waives the tuition fees for successful nominees, and the CSC provides a living allowance that includes overseas student health cover, a return airfare to London and visa application fees. The 2026/27 competition closed on 1 January 2026 (funding code 2627-KCSC); the next annual call is expected to open in late 2026 for the following academic year. Candidates apply to King's admissions and are nominated by King's Doctoral College to the CSC, which makes the final award decisions.

This scholarship is currently closed. Based on its annual cycle, applications are expected to reopen around Jan 2027 — the exact date is set when the provider publishes the next cycle. Check the provider website for the next cycle, or see similar open opportunities below.
