Major Fellowships
Rhodes Scholarship
Rhodes Scholars are elected for two years of study at the University of Oxford, with the possibility of renewal for a third year. All educational costs, such as matriculation, tuition, laboratory and certain other fees, are paid on the Scholar's behalf by the Rhodes Trustees. Each Scholar receives in addition a maintenance allowance adequate to meet necessary expenses for term-time and vacations. Rhodes Scholars are chosen not only for their outstanding scholarly achievements, but for their character, commitment to others and to the common good, and for their potential for leadership in whatever domains their careers may lead. Graduating seniors and graduates may apply. Must be at least 18 and not yet 24 by the application deadline. Nontraditional U.S. applicants may be no older than 26 as of October 1 of the application year and must also have completed requirements for their first undergraduate degree on or after October 1 of the year prior to the application year. University endorsement and 3.7 GPA required.
