The British High Commission has announced multiple scholarships for Pakistani students to mark the 75 years of relationship between Pakistan and the United Kingdom (UK).

According to details, the British High Commission announced 75 scholarships during an event held in Lahore. Out of 75 scholarships, 63 will be offered under the Chevening Scholarship Program and 12 under the GREAT Scholarship Program.
