Summary
The Rhodes Scholarship is a fully funded, full-time postgraduate award that enables talented young people from around the world to study at the University of Oxford. Rhodes Scholars come to the UK for two or more years and can apply to study most full-time postgraduate courses offered by Oxford University.
Eligibility:
Nationality/citizenship: You may only apply to the Global Scholarships if you are not eligible to apply via any existing Rhodes constituency. If you have a strong connection to one or more Rhodes constituencies but do not meet their eligibility criteria, you should also consider inter-jurisdictional consideration rather than the Global Scholarship.
Age: You must meet either of the below criteria: i. You must be aged 18-23 on 1st October 2024 (i.e. you must have been born after 1 October 2000 and before 2 October 2006). OR (for older candidates who completed their first undergraduate degree later than usual) ii. You must be under 27 on 1st October 2024 (i.e., have been born after 1 October 1997) and have completed your first undergraduate degree on or after 1 October 2023
Benefit:
Oxford University course fees
An annual stipend. For the 2023/24 academic year, the stipend is £19,092 per annum (£1,591 per month), from which Scholars pay all living expenses, including accommodation. Please note – this is not sufficient to cover partners or dependents.
Following selection for the Scholarship, the Rhodes Trust will cover the fee required to apply to study at the University of Oxford.
Visa and the associated International Health Surcharge (IHS)
Two economy class flights – to and from the UK – for the beginning and end of studies in Oxford.
On arrival in Oxford, Scholars receive a settling in allowance and for those Scholars who transition to a second course of study in Oxford, they will again receive assistance to cover the fee for visa renewal and further application for IHS.
Deadline:
23:59 GMT, 1 August 2024
