Alain Locke Studentship

In 2027–28, Hertford College is offering one Alain Locke Studentship, which is restricted to Rhodes Scholars whose funding is at an end but who need additional time to complete their studies in Oxford.

The studentship is in memory of Alain Leroy Locke, the first African-American Rhodes Scholar, who entered Hertford in 1907. The Hertford College Alain Locke Studentship will be tenable for a single academic year, and will include free Hertford accommodation (conditions apply), in addition to the stipend of £5,000 split into three payments.

The call for applications will be announced in January 2027.
