Scholarship Eligibility Criteria

Chapter Project Grants

Deadline: November 11, 2019 for Spring 2020 semester

  • Sigma Tau Delta’s Project Grants are designed to encourage local chapters to be innovative in developing projects that further the goals of the Society.
  • The Society will award a limited number of grants, for no more than $500 each, to support local chapter activities.
  • Funds may be requested for separate projects or for parts of larger projects, and chapters should explore ways to use Project Grants in combination with funds secured from other sources. Funds may be requested for ongoing projects, but there is no guarantee that projects funded during one grant period will receive funding in future grant periods. http://www.english.org/schol-award-grant/grants/index.shtml
