Earlier this year, #RhodesScholar David Sykes visited Rhodes House with his family and took a moment to pose beside his class photo from 1994. “Returning to Oxford brought back a flood of memories and reinforced how the Rhodes Scholarship changed my life in many positive ways.”

"Truly, the Rhodes community has become a second home. It’s hard to picture this experience without the incredible Scholars whose diverse backgrounds and unique cultures have enriched every discussion. " - #RhodesScholar Ayomikun Ayodeji, from Nigeria, studying Energy Systems.


"It’s been 7 years since I became a Rhodes Scholar. Every stage has been life-changing. It’s been a gift that keeps giving. "It gives me joy to witness the incredible potential in applicants. If you’re eligible, I encourage you to apply!” ✨

"I urge you to take the first bold step and never rule yourself out! The worst that can happen is rejection with a silver lining of valuable and authentic personal introspection about your life plans and contributions to humanity." #RhodesScholar Kevin Otiato @otiato_omondi
