Fully-funded 2023 Stanford University Knight-Hennessy Scholars Fellowships

Knight-Hennessy Scholars (KHS) provides funding for the degree program listed in the initial KHS admission letter. Scholars who wish to enrol in an additional graduate program may apply to KHS to receive additional funding up to the maximum of three years. This additional funding is not guaranteed.

If a scholar is admitted to a degree program that exceeds three years – such as an MD, PhD, or Stanford dual- or joint-degree program – then funding is based on the graduate degree program’s standard funding commitment. This varies by department and school, as indicated in the chart below. Please contact the graduate program with specific questions about their funding commitment.
