Fully funded scholarship from Stanford University in United States. Check the deadline and eligibility on the official page before applying.

A scholarship offered by Stanford University in United States.

The organiser describes this as fully funded. On this site that means tuition and accommodation are recorded as covered; flights are left as not stated until we have confirmed them, because they vary between programmes that use the same phrase. This is aimed at applicants at Master's level.

Before you apply

Open the official page and confirm three things: that the deadline still stands, that you meet the eligibility criteria as they are written there, and what documents you will need. Applications fail more often on a missing document than on a weak candidate.

Every detail here is checked against the organisation's own page, and that page is the authority: deadlines move, eligibility is rewritten, and programmes are withdrawn without announcement. Confirm before you apply.

How to apply

Knight-Hennessy is two applications, not one. You apply separately to the Stanford graduate programme you want to study, and to Knight-Hennessy itself through its own portal at apply.knight-hennessy.stanford.edu. Being admitted to one does not admit you to the other, and the deadlines differ.

There is no fee for the Knight-Hennessy application, but you still pay whatever fee your graduate programme charges.

What you will need

  • Knight-Hennessy online application
  • A separate application to a Stanford graduate programme
  • Two recommendations
  • Transcripts
  • Essays and short-answer responses

Eligibility notes

Open to all nationalities. Around 100 scholars are selected each year across every Stanford graduate school.

Details can change without notice. Confirm everything on the organisation's own page before you apply — see our disclaimer. Spotted something out of date? Tell us.
