Phi Delta Gamma Graduate Scholarship

Applications have closed for the 2023-2024 Academic Year

Phi Delta Gamma, a national graduate fraternity founded in 1922, actively supports graduate education in all fields of study. Members have earned or are pursuing advanced degrees and represent high standards in scholarship, professionalism, and service. Phi Delta Gamma is a unique interdisciplinary organization, committed to the advancement of graduate education.

The Beta Chapter of Phi Delta Gamma provides an annual award, known as the Phi Delta Gamma Scholarship, to a graduate student who is a candidate for an advanced degree in any school of the George Washington University and who shows scholarship, financial need, and promise. Students do not need to be members of the organization to be eligible for this award.

Scholarships are awarded for GW tuition purposes. No cash grants are given. Awards are stackable* and vary from $1,000 - $2,000. (Note: fees are not covered by these awards and Summer Sessions are not covered by these awards.)
