Welcome to Prospect Burma’s scholarships portal
At Prospect Burma, we know there are many barriers preventing Myanmar’s young people from accessing higher education.
Prospect Burma’s scholarship programme provides financial help to young people from marginalised communities in Myanmar. We are funded by donations and grants and can only support a few students each year. This means that the application process is very competitive.
We have two scholarship application periods:
- In-person university scholarships which will support you to study for a bachelor’s, master’s or PhD at an international university outside of Myanmar
- Online university scholarships which will support you to study for an accredited degree, certificate or diploma provided online by an international university
The application periods are:
- In-person scholarships: 1 December to 31 January
- Online scholarships: 1 April to 31 May
For one month prior to the application period opening, we run a series of information sharing webinars. These are advertised on our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/ProspectBurmaStudents/.
For 2025-2026 academic year, the application periods are:
In-person scholarships: 1 December 2024 to 31 January 2025 – this application period is now closed.
Online scholarships: 1 April 2025 to 31 May 2025
This portal provides you with information on:
- What the scholarship entails, eligibility, what you can study, where you can study and conditions.
- How to fill our application forms. There is a different application form and process for In-person and Online.
- Our partner universities which provide fee waivers.
