Frank Knox Memorial Fellowships 2027–28 (United Kingdom)
Harvard University
- Type
- Fellowship
- Support
- Full Harvard tuition, mandatory health insurance fees, and a stipend that covers a single fellow's living costs for a 10-month year. Guaranteed for up to two years on longer degree programmes.
- Deadline
- 1 Feb 2027
- Eligibility
- UK students who normally live in the UK and were wholly or mainly educated there before university. You must be graduating from a UK university in 2026–27 or already hold a UK degree, and you must not already be in the US. The award depends on being admitted to a full-time Harvard graduate degree programme; it doesn't cover non-degree, online, part-time or postdoctoral study. Fee to note: you also apply separately to the Harvard school, and that application has its own process.
About this fellowship
Harvard awards about 15 Knox Fellowships a year to new graduate students from the UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand; this listing is the UK round. You submit the Knox application, with a CV, an essay of up to 1,000 words, transcripts and two references, and apply separately for admission to your chosen Harvard school. The fellowship is confirmed only if you're admitted. Fellows normally live in the Boston area for their first two years, and family costs aren't covered.
