UK: Rhodes Scholarships launched in China
The Rhodes Trust has launched its postgraduate scholarship program in China, allowing Chinese students to apply, for the first time, for Rhodes Scholarships to study in the UK at Oxford University. The first intake of Chinese Rhodes Scholars will be selected this year, to start their postgraduate study in 2016. Introducing these scholarships to China marks the first step of the Trust’s international expansion plan. The Rhodes Scholarships were established in 1903 and currently are awarded to 83 individuals from 30 different countries every year. Each of the scholarships is worth £50,000 per annum and covers tuition, health insurance, accommodation, and travel.
