<p>Marshall and Rhodes Scholarships are highly coveted honors for undergraduates. Most students applying begin thinking about them in their sophomore or junior years and Princeton offers significant assistance in the application process. Winners tend to be those who have performed significant research in their chosen field or who have shown exemplary leadership in their communities and beyond. Those who win these awards tend to be remarkable people.</p>
