Applications for the 2024 Rhodes Scholarship have been made available to qualified individuals who wish to enrol in courses at Oxford University in the United Kingdom.
The Rhodes Scholarships have just lately been given out in 20 constituencies (representing over 60 different countries). The Rhodes Scholarships are now entirely international thanks to two new Global Scholarships that are open to qualified applicants from around the world (subject to nomination).
This Scholarship is seeking exceptional young leaders who are driven to tackle global issues and advance peace and understanding on a global scale.
The Rhodes Scholarship is a fully funded, full-time postgraduate grant that allows bright young people from all around the world to study at Oxford.

Eligibility for the Rhodes Scholarship
You must adhere to the following criteria to be eligible for the Rhodes Scholarship:
a. Citizenship or nationality: Only if you are ineligible to apply through any current Rhodes constituency may you apply for the Global Scholarships. You should also think about inter-jurisdictional consideration rather than the Global Scholarship if you have a close relationship with one or more Rhodes constituencies but do not match their eligibility requirements.
b. Age: You must fit one of the following requirements:
I. You must be at least 18 years old and under 24 on October 1, 2024. OR (for older candidates who completed their first undergraduate degree later than usual)
II. You must not be older than 27 on October 1, 2024, and you must have satisfied or be on to fulfil the academic requirements for your first undergraduate degree by October 1, 2021, or later.
c. Academic success: You must already have completed or will have completed by July 2023, an undergraduate degree (typically a Bachelor’s degree), with an academic background and grade, that, at the very least, meet or exceed the specific entry requirements of your chosen full-time course at the University of Oxford.
Candidates who hold a First Class Honours Degree or the equivalent, or a GPA of 3.70/4.0 or better, will have a stronger chance of being admitted to Oxford because of the extremely fierce international competition for spots at the University of Oxford.
d. English language proficiency: You must possess a high enough level of English to satisfy the University of Oxford’s requirements (at the Higher Level listed).
e. If you are unsuccessful in your initial application for a Rhodes Scholarship, you may only reapply once (and it must be for the same constituency), provided you still meet the eligibility requirements.
