Overseas Naga Bursaries

Overseas Naga Bursaries

The KET is delighted to announce that in Spring 2025 we launched a new initiative offering bursaries to young Naga students living and studying outside of India. 

The first two bursaries were awarded in June 2025 - please see the news item for more details.

A bursary will offer financial assistance to tertiary level students of recent Naga heritage who are permanently residing outside India, with a focus on those studying in the UK. The bursary support will prioritise STEM subjects and professional qualifications in the trades and services sectors.

Each bursary will be worth a total of £3,750 and will be paid to the successful applicant on a prorated basis across the terms or semesters of the course. It will not be paid in a lump sum. 

If you are interested in applying for a bursary, the next round of applications will open in September 2025 and will be announced nearer the time. 

The decision of who will receive a bursary will be made by the Kohima Educational Trust board of Trustees and will be final.
