Scholarships

Past History: In past years, each chartered Alumni chapter annually received $500 from the Alumni Association to award to a local high school graduate who would be attending MU. As an Honor Chapter, the Callaway County Chapter received an additional $200 annually. Additionally, for each new member who joined the Alumni Association during the year (using the Chapter's membership appeal code CA) the chapter received an additional $5.

The Chapter has awarded a scholarship in excess of $700 to a Callaway County high school graduate who was enrolling at MU each of the succeeding years. As a Capstone Chapter, the Chapter now has a $4,000 scholarship available ($1,000/yr., renewable for up to four years).
