Phi Theta Kappa is a national honor society for students at junior or community colleges. A limited number of scholarships at Monmouth University are available for students who are members of the society at the time they enroll at Monmouth. The Office of Undergraduate Admission will identify and select the recipients; there is no separate application process for the scholarship. Awards are valued at $2,500 per year. The scholarship in combination with all other grants, scholarships, and need-based loans will not exceed direct cost (e.g., tuition, fees, and room/board for resident students). Awards are renewable provided the student maintains full time status and a cumulative grade point average at Monmouth University of at least 3.0.
