Julia Henry Biography & Facts

The Charles and Julia Henry Fellowships (known as the 'Henry Fellowships') were initiated in 1930. The fellowship funds four full-time post-graduate students every year at Harvard University, Yale University, the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford. Two students from any British university are funded to study in the US (one at Harvard and one at Yale), and two American students from Harvard and Yale are funded to study at Cambridge and Oxford. The Henry Fellowships are administered according to the 1927 will of Lady Julia Henry, the wife of Sir Charles Henry, an Australian-born philanthropist who became a Member of Parliament in the British House of Commons from 1906. The fellowships are awarded by the Henry Fund, a registered charity which also awards the Jane Eliza Procter Fellowship for British PhD students to study at Princeton University. For the 2019/20 Henry Fellowships, the award covers full tuition, health insurance, £2,500 travel expenses, and a $34,000 maintenance grant (considerably higher than the comparable Kennedy Scholarship maximum means-tested grant of $26,000). Trustees of the Henry Fund As of September 2019, the trustees, responsible for nominating the Henry Fellows from British universities to study at Harvard and Yale, are: Cambridge Trustees: Professor Lord Eatwell, President of Queens' College (Chairman) Dame Fiona Reynolds, Master of Emmanuel College Lord Smith of Finsbury, Master of Pembroke College Oxford Trustees: Professor Sir David Clary, President of Magdalen College Mr Will Hutton, Principal of Hertford College Baroness Royall of Blaisdon, Principal of Somerville College Harvard Trustees: Professor Drew Gilpin Faust, President of Harvard University Mr Marc Goodheart, Vice President and Secretary of Harvard University Professor Rakesh Khurana, Dean of Harvard College Yale Trustees: Professor Peter Salovey, President of Yale University Ms Kimberly Goff-Crews, Secretary and Vice President for Student Life Professor Marvin Chun, Dean of Yale College Secretariat to the Henry Fund: Ms Jessica Barrick, Secretary Notable Henry Fellows M.
