Emerging Scholar Awards

Phi Kappa Phi’s board of directors recently approved the creation of a new awards program, Emerging Scholar Awards. Emerging Scholar Awards will recognize outstanding rising sophomores studying at Phi Kappa Phi member institutions.   Each year, Phi Kappa Phi will grant 60 awards in the amount of $250 to students who meet the following eligibility requirements:

• Attend an institution with a Phi Kappa Phi chapter (see www.PhiKappaPhi.org/Web/Chapters for listing);
• Have a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.75 on a 4.0 scale;
• Have a minimum of 30 semester hours (or equivalent, excluding all AP, Credit by Exam, transfer credits, etc.) of academic credit;

PLEASE NOTE: You must have earned no more than a total of 60 semester hours as of July 14, 2008 (excluding all AP, Credit by Exam, transfer credits, etc.) during your post high school academic career.

“This new award represents Phi Kappa Phi's continuing effort to be responsive to the needs of our membership, and to the changing conditions of American higher education,” said Society President Dr. Paul J. Ferlazzo.
