Oxford University invites applications for the Hill Foundation Scholarships in the UK for the 2023/24 academic year.
The University doesn’t have a campus—the University and its colleges are spread across the beautiful city of Oxford which is a diverse and historic city, just a short distance to the west of London. It’s a major British and European centre for the arts, science, technology and innovation, and a fantastic place to live and study.
In Oxford, you’re never far away from green spaces—there are parks, gardens and meadows throughout the city, which is also surrounded by rolling countryside. The rivers running through the city give rise to Oxford’s famous traditions of rowing and punting, with miles of scenic waterways to enjoy.
