Hill Foundation Scholarships

The Hill Foundation Scholarships are designed to fund Russian students to study for second undergraduate degrees at the University of Oxford. The Hill Foundation is a charity which aims to create a community of Oxford scholars and alumni who will work to improve life and culture. The scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic merit to students who demonstrate extremely high academic ability and personal and social qualities of a high order. The trustees seek applicants who wish to spend their lives in ways that are beneficial to society, whether in business, academic life, public service, the arts or the professions. The scholarship covers 100% of course fees and provides a grant for living costs for the full duration of the agreed course. Applicants must be nationals of and ordinarily resident in the Russian Federation, hold a first degree from a Russian university, and must not have been enrolled in any other degree programme outside of Russia. Recipients are expected to return to Russia upon completion of their studies.
