Rhodes Scholarship

The Rhodes Scholarship is the oldest international educational fellowship in the world. It enables outstanding students to pursue 2-3 years of graduate study at Oxford University in the United Kingdom. The scholarship covers university and college fees, a personal stipend, and economy class airfare to Oxford at the start of the scholarship, as well as an economy flight back to the student's home country at the conclusion. There are 32 scholarships awarded each year to U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. The Rhodes Scholarship is open to students in any major who are sufficiently advanced academically to complete a bachelor's degree before beginning the program. Applicants must be between 18 and 23 years of age at the time of application and must demonstrate outstanding academic achievement and potential for leadership and service.
