Welcome to the Gates Cambridge YouTube channel, where you can find out about the Gates Cambridge Scholarships and the activities of our Scholars and Alumni.

Gates Cambridge Scholarships are prestigious, full-cost scholarships for postgraduate study and research in any subject at the University of Cambridge. They are awarded to academically outstanding individuals with a capacity for leadership who are committed to improving the lives of others. There are currently over 1,200 Scholars and Alumni from almost 100 countries.

The Scholarships are administered by the Gates Cambridge Trust (an exempt charity in Cambridge, UK) and were set up in 2000 by a donation of US$210m to the University of Cambridge by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation - the largest single donation to any UK university.
