Scholarship Details
The Clarendon Scholarships are fully funded, covering course fees and providing a grant for living expenses for the duration of the fee liability period. The aim is to reduce financial barriers, allowing scholars to concentrate on their studies. Living expenses support enables scholars to engage actively in Oxford life and provides valuable time for relaxation and socialization.
Scholarship Requirements
To be eligible for the scholarship, candidates must demonstrate outstanding academic merit and potential. Clarendon Scholarships are open to graduate students worldwide, applying for a new master’s or DPhil course by the January admissions deadline. All graduate-level degree-bearing courses in any subject are eligible, including both full-time and part-time master’s and all DPhil courses. Postgraduate Certificate or Diploma courses are not eligible.
Scholarship Duration and Reward
All Clarendon Scholarships cover tuition and college fees entirely. Full-time scholars receive an annual living cost grant of at least £17,668 for the 2023-24 academic year. Part-time scholars receive a study support grant to assist with non-fee costs. Scholarships are typically offered for the full tuition fee liability period, corresponding to the course length.
