2025 SEWARD SCHOLARSHIPS

Seward Scholarships are awarded annually to Undergraduate members in good standing of either the Alpha Delta Phi Fraternity or the Alpha Delta Phi Society on the basis of their academic achievement and contributions to their chapter and their campus community.

This is a merit based scholarship. It is not based on financial need and you do not need to provide any financial information to apply.

 Scholarships are awarded only to those applicants who will be full time students in the 2025-2026 academic year, and the scholarships must be used to meet direct educational expenses such as books and class supplies. Scholarships will range up to $1,000 and are awarded on a competitive basis.

 The 2025 Seward Scholarship competition will be conducted in four stages.



1.     Submission of Seward Scholarship Application and Official Transcript

 The Seward Scholarship Application should be prepared by the student. The applicant must have their college or university send an official transcript of grades to the Committee.  

 No applicant will be considered for the scholarship unless the application and official transcript are both received by the application deadline.
 

The application deadline is July 11, 2025.
