About

The first Canadian Rhodes Scholars took up residence in Oxford in 1904, and since that time over a thousand Canadians have been awarded a Scholarship. The Association aims to:

  • Connect Current and Senior Scholars with each other, through events and communications.
  • Disseminate information about the Scholarship and about Scholars in a regular e-Newsletter.

Contact CARS@rhodestrust.com for more information and to be added to the CARS WhatsApp group.

CARS events are organised locally, and upcoming CARS events can be seen here, in newsletters and on the Rhodes Events page. Please do get in touch if you would like to organise or host an event.

Would you like to organise a regional meeting of Rhodes Scholars?

The Association is more than happy to help Scholars organise regional gatherings. Please contact us to let us know and we will help identify who lives within that particular region and can contact them on your behalf.
