Below is a list of scholarships for Phi Theta Kappa members. Please check with our Student Services Department for availability options.

  • The All-USA Academic Team program program annually recognizes three, 20-member "Teams" of outstanding two-year college students, offering stipends of $2,500 each to the top 20 students. All receive extensive national recognition through coverage in USA TODAY.
  • The top-scoring applicant for the All-USA Academic Team in each state is named a New Century Scholar. The New Century Scholars program is sponsored annually by the American Association of Community Colleges, The Coca-Cola Foundation, the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation, and Phi Theta Kappa.
  • First or second year community college students planning to continue their education at a two-year institution may be nominated by their college to apply for the $1,000 Coca-Cola Two-Year Colleges Scholarship administered by the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation.

  • Leaders of Promise is the Society's first scholarship program available to members to be used during the time they are enrolled in their community colleges. A total of 30 scholarships of $1,000 each will be awarded based on applications submitted by members.
  • Phi Theta Kappa is the only two-year college honor society whose members are automatically nominated for inclusion in the National Dean's List, a prestigious publication of outstanding students in two-year, four-year, and graduate degree programs.
  • One $500 On-Line Scholarship will be awarded each month to randomly selected members who have enrolled in Get Connected. Nearly $10,000 in Network Scholarships were awarded during the last academic year. One winner is announced in the Golden Key News Briefs each month, and that person is required to call by a specified deadline to claim the Scholarship.
  • The number of scholarship opportunities continues to grow for community college students. Phi Theta Kappa members are leaders on college campuses both scholastically and in terms of campus and community involvement, making them excellent candidates for scholarships.
