Overview
Frank Knox Memorial Fellowships are awarded to enable Australian students to study at Harvard University in the United States. This scholarship is funded through the Frank Knox Memorial Fellowship program.

Value of fellowship
Knox Fellowships include tuition and health insurance fees plus a stipend of at least US$23,000 which is sufficient to cover living expenses of a single fellow for a ten-month academic year. Recipients who are admitted to a Harvard degree program that requires multiple years of study are guaranteed two years of Knox funding, provided they remain in good academic standing.

•are citizens of Australia at the time of application and who are normally resident in Australia;
•wish to attend one of Harvard University's graduate or professional schools - the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences; Harvard Business School; Harvard Divinity School; Harvard Kennedy School; Harvard Medical School; Harvard School of Dental Medicine; Harvard School of Public Health; Graduate School of Design; Graduate School of Education; or the Harvard Law School.

4. Candidates from all fields of study are eligible to apply. Preference will be given to degree seeking candidates.
5. Knox Fellowships are not awarded for postdoctoral research at Harvard University.
