This checklist: https://qualifyafrica.com/o/gates-cambridge-scholarship-2027-2028
Built only from what the listing states. Lines marked (our advice) are ours.
A long application, by our reading.

1. CHECK YOURSELF AGAINST WHAT THEY ASK
[ ] Not a UK citizen
[ ] A first degree strong enough to enter a Cambridge PhD, MLitt or one-year master's
[ ] Applying to start a PhD, MLitt or a one-year postgraduate course at Cambridge in 2027/28; check the course deadline (8 December 2026 or 6 January 2027)

2. WHAT TO GET READY
The listing does not say what it needs. When you open their page, write down everything it asks for before you start.

3. DATES
- Closes 8 December 2026, in 47 days.
- Aim to send it by 5 December 2026. Websites slow down near a deadline, and data runs out. (our advice)

4. WHAT IT COSTS YOU
- Nothing to apply.

A job never asks you to pay to apply. A listing that charges shows the fee above, and it is paid only to the organisation. If anyone asks for money any other way, stop, and tell us: hello@qualifyafrica.com
