This program includes the All-USA Academic Team, New Century Scholarships, Coca-Cola Academic Teams and All-State Academic Teams.  Nominated students are placed into the national competition for more than $41 million in scholarship opportunities. Our College has the opportunity to receive national press recognition should one of our nominees be identified as a scholar. In addition to being eligible for these scholarships opportunities, the College's nominees automatically become members of the All-PA Academic Team and receive tuition scholarships (based on full-time enrollment) for fall 2023 to any of the 14 colleges and universities that make up the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE). To view the 14 institutions that comprise PASSHE, please visit www.passhe.edu. Please note that Temple University and Penn State University are not part of the PA State System. International students are not eligible for the state scholarships.  Please note: Applicants DO NOT need to be members of Phi Theta Kappa to apply. At this time, we ask you to announce and encourage students to apply for these scholarship opportunities; in particular, students with outstanding academic rigor and grade point averages; participation in honors programs; awards, honors and recognition for academic achievement; and service to the College and community. In addition, the focal point of the application is the essay. This should center around one endeavor undertaken by the student that utilized their two-year college education to improve their respective community or college. Judges look for innovative, creative, original and lasting achievements or undertakings.  Please encourage eligible students to apply at https://scholarships.ptk.org.
