Fully Funded Clarendon Scholarships at University of Oxford is a unique scheme that offers around 130 new, fully-funded scholarships each year to academically outstanding graduate students, as well as providing a lively and stimulating community of scholars. Clarendon Scholarships aim to give the most academically-able students not only the life-changing opportunity to study at Oxford, but also the chance to form lasting social, academic and professional networks.

Scholarship

All Clarendon Scholarships cover tuition and college fees in full. Scholars on a full-time course receive a generous annual grant for living costs – which will be at least £14,777 for 2018-19. Scholars on a part-time course receive a study support grant to help cover their non-fee costs. The scholarships are normally offered for the full period for which you are liable to pay tuition fees to the University, which is usually the same as the length of your course.

The Fee liability page explains this in full, and also gives information about charges that may be applied after the standard period of fee liability has been reached and which are not covered by the Clarendon Fund
