  SGF International Facts
  
One of the unique aspects of the Stanford Graduate Fellowships program is its availability to international students. Many highly competitive fellowships, such as the National Science Foundation Fellowships, are restricted to U.S. citizens. The Stanford Graduate Fellowships program has enabled the university to attract a greater number of the top international students applying for graduate study in the United States. Of the 333 SGF recipients in the three classes, 136 or 40 percent are international students.

The international students represent 27 countries, chief among them are China, Canada, and India with 33, 26, and 15 students respectively. Other countries and regions represented in the program are Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Croatia, Egypt, France, Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Hong Kong, Iran, Israel, Latvia, Philippines, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Romania, Russia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey, and the United Kingdom.
