Scholarships
The Zeta Psi Educational Foundation awards around 75 scholarships each year to eligible students in the United States. The Zeta Psi Foundation of Canada offers scholarships to students in Canada, using a different application (See below). Each US scholarship is generally a one-time per semester award of $500.

In addition, two or three exceptional applicants each semester receive awards ranging from $750 to $2,500.
