    About the Award:

    The Clarendon Fund offers around 140 full scholarships every year to academically excellent graduate students from all around the world. Clarendon Scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic excellence and potential across all degree-bearing subjects at graduate level at the University of Oxford.

    Type:

  • Masters, PhD

    Selection Criteria:

    Selection criteria vary slightly depending on the subject area and whether applicants apply for a taught or research degree, but include:

    An excellent academic record is essential:
    A high first class honours degree or its equivalent (a GPA score of at least 3.7 if the mark is out of 4, noting that most successful candidates achieve a score higher than 3.7) or an outstanding academic record at Master’s level is necessary (noting that an outstanding Master’s degree can compensate for a moderate first degree performance).

    Other indicators of high academic achievement may include individual marks on student transcripts; evidence of previous university prizes or awards;

    information on your overall position within your cohort; and publications (if applicable).
    Aptitude for the proposed course of study: This may be assessed by reviewing academic references, the research proposal, demonstrated evidence of aptitude for research, and the likelihood the scholar will contribute

    significantly to their field of study.

    Student motivation:

  • This is assessed through evidence of the applicant’s commitment to their proposed course, evaluated by the personal statement and referees’ reports.

    Value of Award:

  • All Clarendon Scholarships cover tuition and college fees in full and a generous grant for living expenses.
