Extraordinary intellectual distinction is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for election to a Rhodes Scholarship. Selection committees seek excellence in qualities of mind and in qualities of person; the Rhodes Scholarships are investments in individuals rather than in project proposals. Accordingly, applications are sought from talented students without restriction as to their field of academic specialization or career plans although the proposed course of study must be available at Oxford, and the applicant’s undergraduate program must provide a sufficient basis for study in the proposed field.

The Soros program is intended to support individuals who are “new Americans,” students whose parents are naturalized citizens or who are naturalized citizens themselves. ��The program looks for students who retain loyalty and a sense of commitment to their country of origin as well as the United States, but regard the United States as their primary residence. ��Candidates must demonstrate the relevance of graduate studies to their long-term career goals and potential in enhancing their contributions to society. ��While academic record is certainly relevant, the program also looks for leadership, creativity and a commitment to the values expressed in the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The fellowship looks for people who have used their opportunities well and who will be leaders in their fields.
