	FAQs</h2>
<div>
	<p>
		<strong>1. Do I need a specific GPA or accomplishments to apply?&nbsp; </strong></p>
	<p>
		There&rsquo;s no set GPA requirement, but the Knight-Hennessy Scholars program looks for signs of your intellectual ability, leadership, and civic awareness. They take a well-rounded view of your application and want to see how you show these traits in your own way. Still, having a strong academic background helps when applying to Stanford&rsquo;s graduate programs.</p>
	<p>
		<strong>2. Do Pakistani applicants need to take the IELTS/TOEFL? </strong></p>
	<p>
		Yes, usually you will need to prove your English skills with tests like TOEFL or IELTS since you&#39;re coming from a non-English speaking country. Each Stanford graduate program has its own score requirements, so be sure to check those.</p>
	<p>
		<strong>3. Can I apply if I already have a Master&#39;s degree from Pakistan?&nbsp; </strong></p>
	<p>
		Yes, if you already have a graduate degree, you can still apply for KHS, as long as you got your first bachelor&rsquo;s degree in January 2019 or later (or January 2017 or later if you served in the military).</p>
	<p>
		<strong>4. How important are recommendation letters? </strong></p>
	<p>
		They&rsquo;re very important. The KHS program really values letters that give clear examples showing your independent thinking, leadership, and civic awareness. Choose people who know you well and can write a solid endorsement. What they say matters more than their title.</p>
	<p>
		<strong>5. What if I need help with the application fee for the Stanford graduate program? </strong></p>
	<p>
		There&rsquo;s no application fee for Knight-Hennessy Scholars, but Stanford&rsquo;s graduate programs may charge their own fees. If you need help, you might qualify for a fee waiver from Stanford University based on your financial situation. Check the Stanford Graduate Admissions website for information on fee waivers.</p>
	<p>
		<strong>6. How can I make my application stand out as a Pakistani applicant?</strong></p>
	<p>
		Talk about your unique experiences and insights as someone from Pakistan. Share how your background has influenced your thinking, your leadership roles (whether in school, work, or the community), and your commitment to making a difference. Be genuine and clearly express your goals and passions.</p>
	<p>
		<strong>7. Can I reach out to someone at Stanford or KHS for help? </strong></p>
	<p>
		The Knight-Hennessy Scholars website has a lot of resources, like webinars and FAQs. You can also contact their admissions team with specific questions. For questions about particular graduate programs, reach out to the admissions office of that department.</p>
