These scholarships are awarded to students who chose to pursue the first two years of Emory University’s liberal arts curriculum at Oxford College and then transition to Emory College of Arts and Sciences to complete the curriculum. Each year Oxford College designates a number of its outstanding incoming freshmen as Oxford Scholars. Oxford Scholars include Robert W. Woodruff Scholars, Dean's Scholars, and Faculty Scholars, all of whom are selected on the basis of their grades, curriculum test scores, essays, extracurricular activities, and demonstrated interest in the Scholars Program. While enrolled at Oxford, these scholars participate in the Oxford Scholars Program, and they participate in the Emory Scholars Program once they transition to the Atlanta campus.
