Hello Rajshree, thank you for your question: What you will need to do is to appear to be in greater need than is actually the cause to gain sympathy or support. People naturally empathise with others in need. When individuals or communities perceive someone as struggling or in distress, they’re often motivated to offer assistance, whether it’s financial, emotional, or social support. By exploiting this vulnerability in others, you can really extract a lot of support in the form of monetary contributions from them, making a bonanza. People are also often moved to act altruistically when they perceive someone as being vulnerable or poor. Therefore, try to make yourself look to be in as much need and distress as possible. Consider concocting a solemn or personal story, particularly one in which are you a person who suffers from a destructive or injurious action. Dress can also be used in order to make yourself appear to be in greater need. The desire of others to help those who look to be struggling or in distress is deeply rooted in social psychology and has evolved as a way to ensure community welfare. Appearing to be in greater need may prompt others to prioritise helping you - this means that you can make a hell of a lot of money!

OP, you have received two silly and unhelpful answers.
For some sensible advice, look at the University of Oxford's website, which describes the admission process for international students in detail.
If you are in a Commonwealth country, the USA, or a few other countries, you may be able to compete for a Rhodes Scholarship for post graduate study at Oxford, but you would need to be academically exceptional to obtain a Rhodes Scholarship.
In general, scholarship funding for undergraduate study at Oxford is not easy to obtain, but check in your home country whether there are any local scholarship schemes for undergraduate or postgraduate funding.
