The Clarendon Fund Scholarship is a scholarship at the University of Oxford. All Oxford University applicants to degree bearing graduate courses are automatically considered for the Clarendon Scholarship.
Established in 2000 and launched in 2001,[1] annually, the scheme now creates over 200 Clarendon Fund Scholarships, formerly referred to as Clarendon Fund Bursaries, to Oxford graduate students from around the world and from across all subject areas, who demonstrate academic excellence and potential. The 2022-23 cohort of Clarendon Scholars includes students from 42 countries.[2]
The Clarendon Scholarship enables the most distinguished and competitive scholars to undertake part- or full-time degree-bearing graduate study, including taught master's degrees, research master's, and research doctorates at the university. Unlike the similar Rhodes Scholarship, it is open to all applicants regardless of age. It covers course fees and provides a grant for living expenses.[3]
As of 2022, there have been more than 2,000 recipients of scholarships from the Clarendon Fund, including over 400 Clarendon Scholars at Oxford in the academic year of 2022/23.[4]
