Oxford University Clarendon Scholarships for International Students in UK, 2018-2019
The Clarendon Fund offers over 140 full scholarships every year to academically excellent graduate students from all around the world. Scholarships are tenable in all subject areas and are open to candidates who apply for a new masters or DPhil course by the January admissions deadline.
Clarendon Scholarships are awarded on the basis of outstanding academic merit and potential to graduate students from all around the world. Clarendon Scholarships aim to give the most academically-able students not only the life-changing opportunity to study at Oxford but also the chance to form lasting social, academic and professional networks.
Clarendon scholarships are competitive, prestigious and highly sought-after. Like all fully-funded Oxford scholarships, they cover all tuition and college fees, and offer a generous grant for living costs; however, Clarendon’s additional appeal lies in its unique community of scholars.
Clarendon scholarships are normally offered for the full period for which you are liable to pay tuition fees to the University, which is usually the same as the length of the course.
