Up to 15 full scholarships are available for applicants who are nationals of and ordinarily resident in the Russian Federation and who are applying to any full-time master’s or DPhil course at Oxford.  

• Applicants must also have a first degree from a Russian university. Preference will be given to applicants who have not previously been enrolled in any other degree program outside of Russia.
• The trustees favor candidates who demonstrate extremely high academic ability and personal and social qualities of a high order. They seek applicants who intend to develop their careers in their homeland and who wish to spend their lives in ways that are beneficial to their home society, whether in business, academic life, public service, the arts, or the professions. The selection panel will use the information that applicants provide in their graduate application form to assess how they meet these criteria.
• Applicants who are offered this scholarship will be required to confirm that they will return to Russia for at least one year following completion of their studies in the UK.
• Scholarships will be awarded based on academic merit.

The information you provide in the relevant sections of the graduate application form (for example, your country of ordinary residence and your previous education institutions), will be used to determine your eligibility for this scholarship.

The scholarship is funded by the Hill Foundation. The Hill Foundation is a charity that aims to create a community of Oxford scholars and alumni who will work to improve Russian life and culture.

To be considered for this scholarship, submit your application for graduate study by the relevant December/January deadline for your course, and tick the relevant box on the graduate application form.
