Both the most prestigious and the oldest international fellowship, the Rhodes Trust annually selects 32 scholars from the United States to study for two years at Oxford University. Cecil J. Rhodes underscored the mission of his scholarship in his will: training emerging leaders from English-speaking nations together to prepare them “to fight the world’s fight.”
Duration of Fellowship: two years
Amount of Fellowship: The Rhodes covers all education costs (matriculation, tuition, fees, and laboratory fees), research costs, traveling expenses to and from Oxford, and provides a stipend.
