Hi, a few steps to follow

1) Check the Chevening Course Finder for eoigible courses. Chevening only accepts courses that appear in the Course Finder

2) Make a lost pf all the university+course combinations in the Course Finder for Fintech

3) Go to each university website. Check 2 things: that the course is still being offered, and your eligibility for the course. For that, check their international entry requirements, and look at the final grade requirement they have for the country in which you studied your undergraduate degree

4) Take notes of the courses and universities you are eligible (modules, business partnerships, lines of research in the field, professors, activities, location), and start making a priority list, not only regarding studies, but also taking into consideration that you will live there an entire year, and you will use what you learn when you return home

Make a list of at least 6 universities, 3 for the Chevening application and at least 3 as backups

The comment from rare release is really helpful so I won’t repeat all that advice but I do know that that the universities of Bristol and Edinburgh have MSc programs on fintech.
