Empowering Achievement

The Tri Sigma Foundation has awarded over half a million dollars in scholarship aid to members. Through annual merit- and need-based scholarships for collegiate and alumnae members, the Foundation recognizes outstanding achievement and relieves the rising costs of higher education.

Scholarship applications are open to collegiate and alumnae members pursuing undergraduate or graduate degrees. Awards range from $500-$5,000. Applications open each spring, and awards are distributed at the beginning of the fall semester.

Note: Applicants wishing to apply for both merit-based and needs-based scholarships will need to fill out both applications.

Scholarship applications for the 2025-26 academic year are now closed. Check back early next year for more opportunities!

Application Resources

Any Tri Sigma collegiate or alumnae member in good standing is eligible to apply for a scholarship.

Members must be enrolled or accepted for enrollment as a full-time student at an accredited college or university. Proof of enrollment is required before a scholarship grant is issued.

Applicants cannot be a current employee or Board member of the Tri Sigma Foundation, member of Tri Sigma’s Executive Council, or a relative of these individuals at the time of the scholarship award.
Yes, two letters of recommendation are required. The online recommendations must be submitted by the application deadline. Applicants without two recommendations will not be considered for an award. Applicants applying for both merit-based and needs-based scholarships can use the same two letters for each application.
Award amounts are based on available funding and range from $500-$5,000.

No preference will be given to any applicant because of age, race, religion, sexual preference, economic status or ethnic origin, donor status, nor will preference by given to National Officers, other past/present volunteers, or past/present chapter officers.

A committee of Tri Sigma Board members and volunteers scores applications and makes recommendations for awards based on merit, adherence to specific eligibility requirements, and demonstrated need. Award recipients and amounts are approved by the Foundation Board of Directors.
Specific merit-based scholarships may have additional requirements for GPA, area of study, chapter, or leadership and service to chapter, campus, and community. Applicants cannot have received a scholarship from the Foundation in one of the preceding two years.
Needs-based scholarships require the applicant to demonstrate financial need. The application is heavily based on demonstrated need. However, weighing strengths and achievements in and outside the classroom allow evaluators to better understand applicants’ unique experiences and potential for success. Applicants applying for a needs-based scholarship must also complete the merit-based scholarship application.
