Scholarships!!!!

I was just going thru the scholarship listings and I found that British Chevening and Rhodes are the major scholarships for Indians at Oxford. But, I would not be able to apply to both, not because that deadline is over but because I am not eligible. For British Chevening, the elibility is that you should be between 25 and 35 by Nov 30, 2005 and for Rhodes, you should be less than 25 by Oct 2006. I will be 25 by Feb 12th which means I am not eligible for both!! Aghast!!!!! I guess its time for these people to give some sort of relaxation on age part as Indians tend to take up higher studies at relatively lesser age...
