The Government of Montserrat has awarded five scholarships for 2025/26 academic year.
Under its Annual Country Training Scheme (ACTS), scholarships have been awarded to read for a BSc in Pharmacy, a BSc in Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, a BSc in Mechanical Engineering, a Certificate in Agriculture and a B.Tech in Computer Engineering.
The awards reflect the government’s renewed policy approach to scholarships, which is based on aligning students’ natural abilities and genuine interests with areas of national development.
The government of Montserrat scholarships are assessed against a Cabinet-approved list of priority study areas, with consideration given to fields outside the list, if candidates can demonstrate how their chosen programme could add value to the island’s development.
The selection criteria include acceptance into a recognized institution, a strong personal statement, a proven academic track record, and the ability to articulate passion and commitment during an interview.
Scholarships are open to Montserratians and legal residents and cover a wide range of costs including tuition, housing, travel, and living expenses.
