The Kuok Foundation offers one of Malaysia's most prestigious privately funded scholarships, with awards covering undergraduate study at leading UK universities. Founded under the Kuok Group — the conglomerate behind Shangri-La Hotels, Kerry Group, and various media and commodity businesses — the scholarship reflects the foundation's long-standing commitment to Malaysian education. The Kuok Foundation British Universities Scholarship is the most well-known award, targeting high-achieving students for programmes at universities including Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, LSE, UCL, and other Russell Group institutions. The scholarship is highly competitive — applicants are expected to show exceptional academic results, strong co-curricular records, and a clear sense of purpose that aligns with the foundation's values. There is also an all-awards programme covering local universities for students who do not intend to study abroad. Applications typically open in the first quarter of the year.
