Description

The Lisa Davis Olney Scholarship shall be awarded to (1) a collegian or alumna member of Eta Xi at Quinnipiac University who will pursue an undergraduate or graduate degree during the academic year for which the scholarship is awarded. (2) Should no applicants meet the first criteria, the scholarship shall be awarded to a collegian or alumna member of Delta Epsilon at Arizona State University who will pursue an undergraduate or graduate degree during the academic year for which the scholarship is awarded. (3) Should no applicants meet the first and second criteria, the scholarship shall be awarded to any 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. (4) In the event Eta Xi and Delta Epsilon are disestablished and cease to exist, unless and until Eta Xi and Delta Epsilon are reestablished, the scholarship shall be awarded according to the first and second criteria. Should no members of Eta Xi or Delta Epsilon qualify, the scholarship 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.
