This encompasses all full-time and part-time master’s and all DPhil courses. Postgraduate Certificate or Diploma courses are not qualified for this scholarship. Clarendon supports scholars from across the University, with no preference for any particular subject area. Applicants applying to start a new graduate course at Oxford are suitable. This includes students who are currently studying for a Master’s degree at Oxford but who will be re-applying for a DPhil (you would be suitable for funding for the DPhil). If you hold a deferred suggest to starting in 2016-17, you will be considered for this scholarship automatically. Students who will continue to study for the same degree at Oxford in the next year are not qualified for this scholarship.

Scholarship Opens: Students from all around the world can submit an application for these Clarendon scholarships.

Number of award(s): The Clarendon Fund proposes over 140 full scholarships each year to academically outstanding graduate students from all around the world.

Duration of award(s): Clarendon Scholarships are presented for the full period that you are liable to pay tuition fees to the University, which is usually the same as the length of your course. The fee liability page of the Fees and Funding website explains this in full detail, and also provides information about charges that may be applied after the standard period of fee liability has been reached and which are not enclosed by the Clarendon Fund.
What does it cover? All Clarendon Scholarships cover tuition and college fees in full. Scholars on a full-time course receive a bighearted annual grant for living costs, which is normally sufficient to cover the living costs of a single student living in Oxford. In 2015-16 this is £14,057 (GBP). Scholars on a part-time course accept a study support funding to help cover their non-fee costs.


Selection Criteria: Clarendon Scholarships are awarded on the basis of outstanding academic merit and potential to graduate students from all around the world. Selection criteria vary slightly depending on the subject area and whether candidates submit an application for a taught or research degree. Generally, applications are assessed against the following criteria:
-An outstanding academic record is important: A high first class honors degree or its equivalent (a GPA score of at least 3.7 if the mark is out of 4, noting that most successful applicants attain 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 projected 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 candidate commitment to their proposed course, evaluated by the personal statement and referees’ reports.
Notification: Not Known

How to Apply: If you submit an application for a full- or part-time master’s or DPhil course at Oxford by the January deadline for your course, you will automatically be considered for a Clarendon Scholarship.
