Eta Sigma Scholarships

The Eta Sigma undergraduate and graduate members that are enrolled at Stephen F. Austin State University work extremely hard during book and bake sales to raise money for the chapter. These funds are raised to be given out as travel and research scholarships to our members. In order to receive an Eta Sigma scholarship you must be a Phi Alpha Theta Member registered through the National Office.

Any member can apply for a scholarship at any point during the school year.
1. Here is the application form.
The officers will hold a meeting to discuss the application and to vote on approving or denying the application.
If the member's application is denied, they will receive both a verbal and written explanation on why the application was denied.
If the member's application is accepted, they will receive notification that their application was approved and a timeline of when the scholarship funds will be sent to the member.
