The scholarship provides gifted students the ability to attend the University of Oxford and continue their education in a Masters or Ph.D. program for free. "It's sort of crazy that... [to] associate myself with these things because I never imagine being able to," said one of those 32 students, Rayan Alsemeiry, who attended school in Mesa. He never thought his upbringing could lead him to study among the best and brightest.
