SACS Rhodes Scholarship :
** The Rhodes Scholarship is one of the world’s most prestigious academic scholarships and covers all fees for tuition, board and lodging at a College at Oxford in England. Rustenburg is one of just four South African schools to qualify for a Rhodes Scholarship.

The following criteria apply, among others :
** You must have a first degree by the time you start at Oxford, which means that you must be at least in the final year of your first degree when you apply for the Scholarship.
** Generally, applicants from South African universities will have had to do very well in their discipline.

** Avoid successful medical school applicants having to postpone taking up the Scholarship;For medical students and medical doctors the age limit is extended by three years.
** This means applicants must have been born after 30 September 1990 and on or before 1 October, 1999.

The intention is to :
** Enable applicants to complete their medical internships before going to Oxford and to take up the Scholarship before completing their post-internship medical residency.

** If you are registered for an MBBCh or an MBChB degree you may apply during your internship, provided that you have not passed your 28th birthday on 1 October in the year after selection, i.e. the year you would start at Oxford.
