Application Deadline: relevant November, December, 2024 or January, 2025

LOCATION: England

The next Optiver Foundation Scholars will begin their studies at Oxford in October 2025, and will be the third cohort of the scholarship scheme. Scholars will join the Departments of Statistics, Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry and Engineering Science, or the Mathematical Institute.

ELIGIBILITY:

Up to six scholarships are available to females who are ordinarily resident in an eligible country and who are applying to start an eligible master’s course at Oxford in October 2025. 

For selection purposes we will include all candidates on relevant courses who have indicated on the postgraduate application form that their sex is female. The sex on the application form must match that shown in identity documents, e.g. passport or visa, but does not have to be the applicant’s legal sex. Transgender people may be able to obtain a passport or visa in a binary sex other than their legal sex.  

Please review the information on the program website to see the complete list of eligible courses and countries.

Students currently at Oxford are not eligible to apply.

This scholarship is not open to applications from candidates who hold deferred offers to start in 2025-26.

They will contact you to ask you to apply for these scholarships if you have: (1) applied for an eligible course by the relevant November, December or January application deadline for your course and received an offer; and (2) you meet the advertised eligibility criteria. Once you have received a course offer, we will ask you to complete a scholarship application form to ask about your socio-economic situation and to assess for potential disadvantages and under-representation.

BENEFIT:

Successful applicants will receive full financial support to cover their course fees, as well as a grant for living costs. The donation will also enable the provision of tailored induction activities, mentoring, and on-course support for the scholars.
