The Rhodes Scholarships for Zimbabwe

Welcome to the information pages about the Rhodes Scholarships for Zimbabwe.

Each year, there are two Scholarships available in Zimbabwe to enable outstanding students - chosen on the basis of exceptional intellect, character, leadership, and commitment to service - to study at the University of Oxford.

Applications for the Rhodes Scholarship for 2013 will open in mid-2012. Applications for 2012 have now closed, and the Rhodes class of 2012 has been elected. The selection committee ordinarily meets in Harare in December.  

Over many decades, Rhodes Scholars from Zimbabwe have pursued a variety of careers in public service, academia, business, law, and medicine, amongst others.

Prospective applicants from Zimbabwe should carefully review:

1. the general information about the Rhodes Scholarships,
2. the selection criteria that apply in all Rhodes constituencies, and
3. the application criteria and procedures specific to Zimbabwe.

There are also FAQs applicable to all applicants. As well as biographies of the Rhodes class of 2012, also available are biographies of the Rhodes class of 2011 and video interviews with diverse Rhodes alumni.
