$70,000 in Emerging Leader Scholarships Available

A Scholarship for New Members of Phi Delta Theta in the 2020-21 class

Leadership is at the heart of Phi Delta Theta Fraternity and everything we do as an organization. As our members work to Become the Greatest Version of Themselves throughout their lives, becoming a better leader is always front-of-mind. Our Fraternity actively seeks emerging leaders who have the potential to thrive within our organization and improve it along the way.

To recognize and reward emerging leaders at campuses where Phi Delta Theta has a chapter, the Phi Delta Theta Foundation has committed $70,000 in Emerging Leader Scholarships during the 2020-21 academic year. One hundred forty scholarships of $500 will be rewarded to young men who have shown promise as a leader, hope to further craft their leadership skills, join Phi Delta Theta, and become a valuable member of Phi Delta Theta.

To apply for a $500 Emerging Leader Scholarship, please complete the application below. Upon completing the application, your information will be shared with a chapter of Phi Delta Theta for membership consideration, and the Phi Delta Theta Foundation will include your submission in its scholarship judging process during the early months of 2021. The scholarships will be awarded in May 2021 for use during the 2021-22 academic year.

Upon judging during the early months of 2021, applicants must be a member of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity in good standing to receive the scholarship, however, applications should be submitted prior to joining the organization.
