Petition to Oppose Commonwealth Scholarship Cuts

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office has recently announced major cuts in funding for future Commonwealth and Chevening scholarships for international students from Commonwealth countries. Universities across Britain are able to bring students from all over the Commonwealth, who would not otherwise be able to afford their studies here. If you are a British citizen or resident and wish to ‘sign’ an online petition to the Prime Minister, opposing the funding cuts, you may do so at: http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/comschols

For further information on the proposed funding reductions, please refer to the following link: http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200708/cmhansrd/cm080313/wmstext/80313m0001.htm#08031365000052
