The scholars are selected based on academic achievement and demonstrated leadership. Each selected scholar is awarded $35,000 for their final year of graduate studies.

Founded in 2000 by the Thomas and Stacey Siebel Foundation, the Siebel Scholars program awards grants to 16 universities in the United States, China, France, Italy and Japan. The 83 students selected into the 2024 class join past more than 1,800 scholars, researchers and entrepreneurs in the Siebel Scholars network.
