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, and our 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 of 3 years by
Feb. 1 st of the application. Applications are available by July 1 each year and due by February 1 st . For
more information access the DKG website at www.dkg.org and select scholarship under the committee

Eta State Scholarship Information may be found at: ncdkg.org
Applications are to be posted at least 3 months prior to the February 1 st 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(s) is awarded to a member seeking an Advanced Certificate, Master’s
degree or Doctorate. Applications are currently available on the Alpha Psi Chapter web site. Completed
forms are due by February 1 st 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 1 st deadline and
for Eta State applicants 2 calendar years. Alpha Psi Scholarships simply require membership in Alpha Psi.
