PHI THETA KAPPA
Honor Society
The All-USA Academic Team seeks to honor outstanding students from a variety of backgrounds
and disciplines to hold up as representatives of all outstanding students enrolled
in associate degree/certificate programs. Because each school is limited to nominating
a total of four students per campus (2 transferring to a bachelor's program and 2
entering the workforce immediately upon associate degree/certificate completion),
the work students put into their application will determine how competitive they will
be in the national competition. Weaving their story in a coherent fashion is critical
in letting nominators and judges know who the student is, what they are doing, and
why they feel qualified to receive this recognition.
All‐USA Academic Team nominees may also be considered for the Coca‐Cola Academic Team,
New Century Pathway Scholarship programs, and All‐State Academic Teams where applicable.
To be considered for these scholarships, students must have a completed application
on file and be nominated by the designated nominator on their college’s campus.
The online application is currently open for access by both students and nominators.
