The Education Ministry’s Department of Scholarships, located in building #23, Street 360, (about 50 metres east of Apsara TV station), is probably the best physical place in the country to get information about scholarships to study abroad. Any student, including recent high school graduates, university graduates or current students can search for scholarship information to pursue their bachelor’s and master’s degrees or a PhD in Cambodia and in other countries around the world. However, if you don’t have time to visit their office, here are a few internet sites that can help you find the scholarship you’re looking for.
