Billy Graham Scholarship Program

Stellar Leaders

We are dedicated to advancing the global Christian community by providing opportunities for different types of Christian leaders from around the world to earn advanced training to enhance the ministry into which God has called them.

Since 1975, approximately 1178 scholars have benefitted from the scholarship program, studying in every field at Wheaton College Graduate School and serving in about 119 countries of the world. Named after Wheaton's most famous alumnus, Dr. Rev. Billy Graham, '43, we pray that our scholars serve with passion, wisdom, and humility. Every year stellar leaders join this fraternity, perhaps you will be one.
