The Rhodes Scholarships are prestigious international awards that enable outstanding students from around the world to study at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. Established in 1902 by Cecil Rhodes, the scholarships aim to promote leadership and service among young scholars. Recipients, known as Rhodes Scholars, are selected based on academic excellence, character, and commitment to making a positive impact in their communities. Each year, the scholarships cover tuition fees, living expenses, and travel costs for up to two years of study. The selection process varies by country, with candidates typically required to demonstrate leadership potential and a strong academic record.
