You are eligible to apply to the Knight-Hennessy Scholars program if you received your first/bachelor’s degree in 2014 or later. That means:

  • You must hold the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor’s degree from a college or university of recognized standing;
  • You must have graduated in January 2014 through September 2021 to enroll at Stanford in autumn 2021.
  • U.S. military (active or veteran) applicants: You receive a two-year extension of eligibility due to longer service commitments. You are eligible if you earned your undergraduate (bachelor’s or first) degree in 2012 or later.
  • If you are still in college studying for your first/bachelor’s degree, you are eligible to apply as long as you will complete your first/bachelor’s degree before you enroll as a graduate student at Stanford.
  • You must also meet the requirements of the Stanford graduate program(s) that you wish to pursue to be eligible for the Knight-Hennessy Scholars Program.
  • You must complete not only your Knight-Hennessy Scholars application, but also the entire application process for your graduate degree program — including any standardized test that your graduate degree program requires (GMAT, GRE, LSAT, MCAT, etc.) and, if needed, an English proficiency test (TOEFL; or, for MBA program only, IELTS).
