Graduate and undergraduate candidates should have an offer of a place to start a graduate course at Oxford in October 2011.
The Raffy Manoukian Scholarship is designed to support students who are accepted on a full degree course at the University of Oxford but prevented from taking up their studies for reasons of financial difficulty. If short-listed you will be contacted by the Raffy Manoukian office directly to provide with financial information.
Please ensure you meet the requirements for entry to your course, including English language requirements. See the Course Guide for more information.
What does it cover?
100% of university and college fees, and a grant for living costs of £12,300 for graduate students, and £9,225 for undergraduate students.
Awards are made for the full duration of a student’s fee liability for the agreed course. If your scholarship is offered for a course lasting more than one year, the continuation of your scholarship each year is subject to an annual renewal process based on satisfactory academic progress.
