Scholarship Exam Details

The Charles Wallace India Trust (CWIT) is the most prestigious UK-based scholarship for Indian artists, heritage professionals, and writers. For 2026, it offers Long-term Grants (for 10-month Master's degrees) and Visiting Fellowships (for 2-3 month research stays). The Master's scholarship is fully-funded, covering tuition fees, living costs, and airfare. CWIT is unique because it prioritizes Arts and Heritage—fields like Film, Photography, Design, Curating, and Conservation. It is a "Niche" award that targets mid-career professionals or exceptionally talented students who want to bridge the cultural gap between India and the UK.
