(2) Should no applicants meet the first criteria, the scholarship shall be awarded to a sophomore or junior collegian member of the Fraternity who will pursue an undergraduate degree in psychology, pre-medicine, or other sciences during the academic year for which the scholarship is awarded. (3) Should no applicants meet the criteria stipulated in the first and second criteria, the scholarship shall be awarded to a collegian or alumna member of Beta at Indiana University who will pursue an undergraduate or graduate degree during the academic year for which the scholarship is awarded. (4) Should no applicants meet the criteria stipulated in the first to third criteria, the scholarship shall be awarded to a collegian or alumna member of the Fraternity who will pursue an undergraduate or graduate degree during the academic year for which the scholarship is awarded.

Ideally, the reference should be able to compellingly speak to the applicant's commitment to Kappa Alpha Theta's values; able to clearly articulate specific details about the applicant's accomplishments, goals, and character; and be more than just the applicant's social contact.
