Knight Hennessy Scholars Program 2027 (Fully Funded)

Knight Hennessy Scholars is a fully funded graduate award at Stanford University. It funds any full time graduate degree at the school. This includes a PhD, MBA, JD, MD, or MS. Many applicants also compare it with other fully funded routes. For example, some look at the Hubert Humphrey Fellowship, another major option in the United States.

First, scholars get full tuition. Also, they get a living stipend. Plus, they get travel and relocation funds. In short, the award covers this.

This part matters a lot. Applicants submit two applications, not one. One goes to the scholars program. The other goes to a Stanford graduate program. This two step process is close to the setup used for the Rhodes Scholarship, which also pairs a scholarship review with a separate school process.
