Pakistan is an eligible country under this scheme. You typically need a UK university offer in parallel with your scholarship application, so start both processes together. The Commonwealth Scholarship Commission specifically prioritises development-relevant research, so frame your proposal around a problem with real application to Pakistan or a similar developing-country context, not purely abstract theory. UK living costs vary enormously by city, and the higher London stipend reflects that — a PhD based outside London will generally stretch the standard rate further.
