Kappa Delta Pi Scholarships

Active paid KDP members (most awards) may apply for dozens of named cash and tuition scholarships supporting education students and early-career teachers. Awards span undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral study plus practicing educators in their first few classroom years.

Individual scholarships range from about $700 to roughly $10,000 in cash, with the American College of Education partnership covering up to about $10,000 in master's tuition or $6,500 in certificate tuition.

One online spring application covers all eligible awards; the 2025-26 cycle is closed and the next cycle opens in early 2027. Submit short answers, essay prompts specific to each scholarship sought, unofficial transcripts, and a reference letter.

Kappa Delta Pi is an international education honor society that funds member scholarships through donor endowments.
