The Rhodes Scholarships have been undergoing some changes in recent years that open up the opportunity for Rhodes-funded studies at Oxford to more students from more countries around the world. For UW, this means that both our US and international students and alumni may be interested and eligible to apply. Students who are citizens (and in some cases permanent residents) of the following countries studying at UW (or elsewhere) may be eligible. Full eligibility details (including the varying age limits) are included on the websites listed below. International students apply through their home countries, but our office is available for advising and support for any UW students/alumni interested:
