The following criteria must be met in order for applicants to be eligible for the opportunity :

• Nationality: All Citizens Welcome: They encourage applications to the Knight-Hennessy Scholars program from citizens of all countries. That’s natural since we expect Knight-Hennessy Scholars to have a global impact.
• All Graduate Programs at Stanford; Only for Graduate Degrees: You are eligible to apply to the Knight-Hennessy Scholars program if you are applying to enrol in a full-time graduate degree program at Stanford (for example, but not limited to, JD, MA, MBA, MD, MS, or PhD) or if you plan on pursuing one of Stanford’s many joints- and dual- graduate degree options (for example, but not limited to, MD+PhD, JD+MA, MBA+MS).

• First/Bachelor’s Degree Received in 2014 or Later; Enrolling in 2019 or Later: You are eligible to apply to the Knight-Hennessy Scholars program if you apply within four years, and enrol within five years after you earn your first/bachelor’s degree. For the pioneer class that enrols in 2018, that means you must have graduated in 2013 or later and must apply in 2017. We will select Scholars who enrol at Stanford in 2018 or later.
• If you’re still in college studying for your first/bachelor’s degree, you’re eligible to apply as long as you complete your first/bachelor’s degree before you enrol as a graduate student at Stanford. Even if you have earned a graduate degree already, you remain eligible for consideration as long as you earned your first/bachelor’s degree within four years of applying and five years of enrolling.
• If you graduated with your first/bachelor’s degree more than four years ago (in 2012 or earlier, for the pioneer class), then you are not eligible for consideration as a Knight-Hennessy Scholar.

The good news is that you still may apply to the Stanford graduate program of your choice, and there are many other options for funding your graduate education at Stanford.
