Benefits

Knight-Hennessy Scholars Program provide the recipient with following benefits:

• A fellowship applied directly to cover tuition (commensurate with the standard departmental level of enrollment) and associated fees.
• A stipend for living and academic expenses (such as room and board, books, academic supplies, instructional materials, local transportation, and reasonable personal expenses).
• A travel stipend intended to cover an economy-class ticket for one annual trip to and from Stanford.
• The Knight-Hennessy Scholars program typically does not cover costs that your home department at Stanford pays for its students – such as for subscriptions or lab equipment.

Notes:

• Knight-Hennessy Scholars also may apply for supplemental funds to support academic endeavors (e.g. conference travel).
• The Knight-Hennessy Scholars program funds up to the first three years of your graduate education, and if your degree program exceeds three years — such as an MD or PhD. 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.

You are eligible to apply if you apply within four years and enroll within five years, after you earn your first/bachelor’s degree.

  • If you graduated with your first/bachelor’s degree more than four years ago (in 2013 or earlier), then you are not eligible for consideration as a Knight-Hennessy Scholar. This applies even if you have earned an additional degree in 2014 or later.
