As a Knight-Hennessy Scholar, a student will develop both the depth and range of subject proficiency to tackle the numerous grand challenges and opportunities of the future. You will be part of an exceptional community of change agents from a diverse range of backgrounds. This is a community that will support you, motivate you, and holds you liable for achieving your goals even when the odds of success seem likely against you.
Eligibility Criteria/ Scholarship Guidelines
Applications are determined by citizens of all countries for all full-time graduate degree programs at Stanford.
You must complete not only your Knight-Hennessy Scholars application, but also the entire application process for your graduate degree program — including any standardized test that your graduate degree program requires (GMAT, GRE, LSAT, MCAT, etc.) and, if needed, an English proficiency test (TOEFL; or, for MBA program only, IELTS).
Although we anticipate Knight-Hennessy Scholars to have performed well, there is no minimum requirement for your grades or scores.
Value
The Stanford education of Knight-Hennessy Scholars is fully financed. The Knight-Hennessy Scholars program financed up to the first three years of your graduate education, and if your degree program exceeds three years — such as an MD or Ph.D. program, or a Stanford dual- or joint-degree program — then your Stanford home department will fund the remainder of your education to the extent consistent with its standard funding commitment for that program.
