Kathryn Bruning Bussing Scholarship, with an application deadline in March, offers one award in the amount of $2000.

Description

The Kathryn Bruning Bussing Scholarship shall be awarded to (1) a collegian or alumna member of Kappa at the University of Kansas who will pursue undergraduate or graduate study during the academic year for which the scholarship is awarded. (2) Should no applicants meet the first criteria, the scholarship funding shall be awarded to any collegian or alumna member of the Fraternity who will pursue undergraduate or graduate study during the academic year for which the scholarship is awarded. (3) In the event Kappa is disestablished and ceases to exist, unless and until Kappa is reestablished, the scholarship funding shall be awarded to a collegian or alumna member of Kappa who is qualified under the Foundation's then current general scholarship criteria. Should no members of Kappa qualify, the scholarship funding shall be awarded to any collegian or alumna member of the Fraternity who is qualified under the Foundation's then current general scholarship criteria. Applicants must provide the contact information of their reference, who should be their current or former supervisor or mentor in an academic, community, professional, and/or Theta-related capacity. 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. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Kappa Alpha Theta Foundation for more information.
