Graduate Scholarships
Keble has a range of graduate scholarship funds generously provided by donors. In the majority of cases these scholarships are linked to the University's Clarendon Fund scheme, meaning that they then provide full fee and maintenance funding for students. These partnership awards are awarded solely on the grounds of outstanding academic merit.
Scholarships are offered to award holders for up to three years coterminous with University fee liability. The annual renewal of scholarships is in all cases subject to satisfactory academic progress.
The application process is automatic, through the normal graduate entry arrangements. See the details here.
The scholarships available at Keble through this scheme are:
- up to five Sloane Robinson Clarendon Keble Awards
- five de Breyne Clarendon Keble Awards
As noted above, as partnership awards, these will provide full maintenance and fees support, regardless of the area of study or background, although there is a preference within the de Breyne awards for students in medical-related fields.
In addition, the College will be offering for October 2012 entry, one Gosden-Water Newton scholarship worth up to £25,000 per annum (for fees and maintenance - around £12,000 maintenance and the remainder full fee coverage). Candidates for this scholarship must (a) either be ordained, or be able to show clear evidence of being in discernment for ordination in the Church of England or a Church in communion therewith; and (b) be intending to study for a postgraduate degree in any faculty in the University of Oxford, or be presently registered for a postgraduate degree in the University of Oxford. Application form.
Also, the College is offering one Ian Palmer Scholarship, to the value of the College fee (approximately £2,300) for up to three years. This is restricted to applicants in Computer Science or related areas. Application form.
We also have the Ian Tucker Memorial Bursary which is for one year only, and is worth up to a total of £6,000 for one or more awards. It is specifically for students demonstrating sporting prowess principally in the field of rugby football, in addition to strong academic ability. Application form.
The closing date for these last three awards is 9 March 2012. Application forms are linked above. All applicants for these awards are expected to have separately submitted their application for University entry by the January 2012 deadline.
