About

The Oxford & Cambridge Society of Kenya (OCS Kenya) has partnered with Wolfson College and the Cambridge Trust to fund this award, which covers the cost of fees and maintenance for a one-year Masters' course for a student from Kenya who requires financial assistance in order to study at Cambridge.

This award is administered by the Cambridge Trust and no separate application is required, but only students who list Wolfson as their first choice are guaranteed full consideration for this scholarship.
