Frank Knox Memorial Fellowships

The Frank Knox Memorial Fellowships provide fully funded graduate and professional study at Harvard University for outstanding students from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Fellows may pursue master's, doctoral, or professional programs at Harvard for one academic year, with select fellowships renewable for a second year. Selection is based on academic excellence, strength of character, and leadership potential. The programme is administered through national selection committees in each of the four eligible countries.

Full tuition and required fees for the Harvard graduate or professional program; a stipend for living expenses; health insurance; membership in the Frank Knox Fellows community and access to alumni networks.

Applicants must be citizens of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, or the United Kingdom; hold or be about to complete an undergraduate degree; and be applying to, or admitted to, a Harvard graduate or professional degree program for the relevant academic year. Additional rules and age guidelines may be applied by each country's national committee.

Two-step process: apply separately for admission to a Harvard graduate/professional program, and submit a separate Frank Knox Fellowship application to the applicant's national selection committee (application form, transcripts, personal statement, references, and interview for shortlisted candidates).
