One of the seven purposes of Delta Kappa Gamma Society International is, “To endow scholarships to aid outstanding women educators in pursuing graduate study and to grant fellowships to non-member women educators.”

There are 3 levels of scholarships available for Alpha Psi Chapter members:

• International Scholarships

• Eta State Scholarships

• Alpha Psi Chapter Scholarship

Up to 30 international scholarships are awarded to members for study at the master’s degree and for work at the doctorate level. Scholarships at the master’s level are in the amount of $6,000, and for doctoral study, $10,000. To receive an international scholarship, you must be a member for 3 years by Feb. 1st of the application year. Applications are available by July 1 each year and are due by February 1st.

For more information, access the DKG website at www.dkg.org and select Scholarship under the Committee section.

Eta State Scholarship Information may be found at: ncdkg.org.
Applications are to be posted at least 3 months prior to the February 1st deadline. There are three $4,000 Eta State Academic Scholarships granted for doctoral or sixth-year graduate study. Additionally, there are Aman Scholarships designated for those seeking a master’s degree or non-degree activities, such as national certification renewal, add-on certification, or special projects.

The Alpha Psi Chapter Scholarship is awarded to a member seeking an Advanced Certificate, Master’s degree, or Doctorate. Applications are currently available on the Alpha Psi Chapter website. Completed forms are due by February 1st each year and should be submitted to the chairman of the scholarship committee. Award(s) are based on available funds. Our budget includes $100.00 each year for this purpose. In addition, money raised by a 50/50 raffle held at chapter meetings contributes to available funds, as well as any contributions or endowments made by members.

The membership requirement for International applicants is 3 years as of the February 1st deadline, and for Eta State applicants, 2 calendar years. Alpha Psi Scholarships simply require membership in Alpha Psi.
