Start researching graduate programs in the UK or Ireland that meet the price requirements and fit meaningfully into your educational career. A good source of information for future programs would be your faculty mentors and the Marshall Scholarships website, which lists several useful links. Once you`ve narrowed down potential graduate programs, start doing detailed research on the programs and their faculty. Find current faculty publications on these programs, find recent program graduates, and reach out to faculty members if you have questions about how your academic and research interests align with their programs.

The orientation aims to familiarize new students with Rhodes` traditions, ideals, academic expectations and regulations and to give them the opportunity to plan their programs of study in consultation with faculty members. During Orientation and Welcome Week, new students also meet with representatives of various student organizations, take placement tests, receive instruction on library use, participate in social activities, and participate in discussions with college administrators. For more information on the Open Rhodes Summer Orientation Program, visit rhodes.edu/admission-aid/admitted-students/summer-orientation.
