The Beta Theta Pi Foundation awards roughly 100 tuition-based scholarships each year to Betas and their sons/daughters. Several scholarships are restricted to particular chapters or fields of study, according to terms of the original endowment.
Scholarships are awarded based on final scores from a three-judge panel — the higher the score, the higher the award.
These are tuition-based scholarships, and the award must be applied toward tuition at the recipient’s college or university. Find more information about this year’s scholarship opportunities below.
