The University of Oxford presents the Reach Oxford Scholarship at the University of Oxford (formerly Oxford Student Scholarships) aimed for undergraduate applicants from selected countries to undertake a full undergraduate program at the University of Oxford. Oxford has a distinctive collegiate structure. Students and academics benefit from belonging both to the University, a large, internationally-renowned institution, and to a college or hall, a small, interdisciplinary academic community.
Every year, a number of Reach Oxford scholarships are offered to students from low-income countries who face several barriers preventing them from pursuing a degree from their countries of origin, which could be political or financial barriers, or because suitable educational facilities do not exist in their home countries.
This program is for students applying for Undergraduate studies at the university of Oxford. Students must apply for admission to the University before they can be considered for a Reach Oxford Scholarship. Therefore, the advise is that you start your application for admissions as early as possible in time for the Reach Oxford Scholarship
