Knight-Hennessy Scholars 2024
Knight-Hennessy Scholars cultivates and supports a multidisciplinary and multicultural community of graduate students from across Stanford University and delivers engaging experiences that prepare graduates to be visionary, courageous, and collaborative leaders who address complex challenges facing the world.
A new cohort of students joins each year, adding to a diverse community of scholars from across disciplines, nationalities, perspectives, and backgrounds. You will learn together, collaborate on impactful projects, and develop lifelong friendships.
Financial support for Knight-Hennessy Scholars during graduate study
During each of the first three years of graduate study, Knight-Hennessy scholars receive several types of funding:
- 🎓 A fellowship applied directly to cover tuition 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
Additional funding specific to certain years:
- 💻 Newly enrolling scholars receive a one-time relocation stipend intended to offset some of the costs associated with relocation to the area and/or technology purchases.
- 🤝 Scholars in their second and third years may apply for supplemental funds to support academic enrichment activities (e.g., conference travel).
King Global Leadership Program
Funded by a generous gift from Dorothy and Robert King, MBA ’60, the King Global Leadership Program offers a wide range of workshops, lectures, projects, and experiences designed around the Knight-Hennessy Scholars Leadership Model.
These offerings complement scholars’ graduate school education and help them develop the traits and behaviors that will enable scholars to reach their leadership objectives.
