The Weidenfeld-Hoffmann Scholarships and Leadership Programme cultivates the leaders of tomorrow by providing an opportunity for outstanding university graduates and professionals, mainly from developing and emerging economies, but also those who would not otherwise be able to support themselves, to pursue fully funded graduate studies at the University of Oxford alongside a comprehensive programme of leadership development, long-term mentoring, and networking.
ELIGIBILITY:
You must be applying to start a new full-time graduate course at Oxford.
You should be intending to return to your country of ordinary residence once your course is completed. Students currently at Oxford are not eligible to apply unless they are already Weidenfeld-Hoffmann scholars.
You should be able to demonstrate a connection between your subject of study and your longer-term career objectives, explaining how you see your professional work contributing to the improvement of public life in your country of origin or at a wider regional or international level.
The above qualities will be assessed during the selection process, including using your graduate application form, your Weidenfeld-Hoffmann Scholarships Statement, and (if relevant) your interview.
This scholarship is not open to applications from candidates who hold deferred offers to start in 2025-26.
BENEFIT:
The scholarship will cover 100% of course fees and a grant for living costs (of at least £19,237). Awards are made to cover the full duration of your fee liability for the agreed course.
