The Churchill Scholarship funds a year of graduate study in Engineering, Mathematics, or Science at Cambridge University. It is highly selective (16 students a year for the STEM award, plus two students selected for the Kanders Churchill Scholarship to pursue a masters in policy.)

Open to US citizens who are in their senior year or within one calendar year after graduation. Candidates normally have strong GPAs and outstanding research records.

UCLA can nominate two students each year. Our campus deadline is October 2, 2024. Applicants must apply concurrently to Churchill College, Cambridge. We suggest that you submit your admissions application by the Gates Cambridge deadline in October.

To apply for our nomination, complete your application in the Churchill portal and ask your recommenders to send their letters to the CSSE.
