The Rhodes Scholarships 2022-2023 is offering a number of Scholarships for international students. Rhodes Scholarships 2022-2023 is currently accepting online applications at Oxford.
It is the oldest (first awarded in 1902) and perhaps most prestigious international scholarship program, enabling outstanding young people from around the world to study at the University of Oxford. 100 Rhodes Scholarships are available per year for postgraduate study at the University of Oxford.
The Rhodes Scholarships are fully funded postgraduate awards for young people from around the world to study at the University of Oxford. We offer Scholarships in over 22 designated Rhodes constituencies, as well as our Global Rhodes Scholarships.
Coverage of Rhodes Scholarships:
The Rhodes Scholarships are for two years in the first instance. The Rhodes Scholarships covers Oxford University (and College) fees as well as providing an annual stipend with the following added benefits:
- For the 2022-2023 academic year, the stipend will be £15,900 per annum (£1,325 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. The Trust will cover the fee for a Tier 4 study visa and the associated International Health Surcharge (IHS), which enables international students to access the UK’s National Health Service.
- The Rhodes Trust will cover 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 (£225 in 2022-23). For those Scholars who transition to the second course of study in Oxford, they will again receive assistance to cover the fee for visa renewal and further application for IHS.
- A number of research grants are also available to Rhodes Scholars, on application, which enables Scholars too, for example, attend international conferences or conduct additional fieldwork.
