Knight-Hennessy Scholars Stanford University

Knight-Hennessy scholars develop deep domain expertise in their Stanford graduate program, and build on this domain expertise through exposure to a wide range of disciplines and cultures within the Knight-Hennessy Scholars (KHS) community. Scholars participate in the King Global Leadership Program (KGLP), which includes workshops, lectures, projects, and experiences that strengthen transformational leadership capabilities. Through KGLP, scholars collaborate and prepare to address important challenges and opportunities facing the world, such as climate change, healthcare, government and policy, and education.

KHS Application Deadline: June 1, 2023 and closes on October 11, 2023 at 1:00pm Pacific Time.

Each incoming Knight-Hennessy Scholar must also apply to, be accepted by, and enroll in a full-time Stanford graduate degree program. Unless you have already been offered and deferred admission to a full-time Stanford graduate degree program, or you are a first-year Stanford PhD student applying to join KHS in your second year, you must submit two separate applications; one to Knight-Hennessy Scholars, and one to your desired Stanford graduate degree program.

  1. Knight-Hennessy Scholars: The Knight-Hennessy Scholars application invites you to make your case for selection by demonstrating independence of thought, purposeful leadership, and a civic mindset. 
  2. Stanford degree program: The Stanford graduate degree program application invites you to make your case for admission to Stanford by demonstrating your qualifications specific to your intended program.

Application Steps:

  • Step 1: Create your two online applications as early as possible.  You do not need to complete the application at once; you may save your progress and return as needed.
  • Step 2: Enter your recommenders’ information in your two applications as early as possible. This allows your recommenders ample time to submit their letters.
  • Step 3: Complete the various sections of the application, saving your progress as you go. Allow yourself ample time to prepare materials that may take longer to prepare, such as essays or personal statements.
  • Step 4: Submit the online applications by their respective deadlines.  (Note: You will not be able to edit your KHS application once you submit it, with the exception of test scores, recommenders, and your intended Stanford graduate degree program)
  • Step 5: If your Stanford graduate program requires test scores and you receive new scores after submitting your KHS application, update test scores for Knight-Hennessy Scholars through your application status page
