Scholarships and fellowships are another way in which the Foundation is active. Each year, the Foundation awards over $50,000 in several different scholarship and fellowship grants. The awards are paid out of the income generated by endowed funds.

General scholarships and fellowships available to members of all chapters
Five needs-based scholarships and one graduate fellowship are currently available. With the exception of the Bye Scholarship all require a minimum GPA of 3.0/4.0 necessary for consideration. The scholarship committee will consider need and active involvement within his Chapter, his campus and the community, and other criteria specific to each scholarship. Scholarships are available only to Triangles who will be undergraduates in the school year following their application, with the exception of the Kapadia scholarship which may go to either an undergraduate or a graduate Triangle, and the Larson Graduate Fellowship.

What does it take to establish a scholarship fund?
There are several ways. The two easiest would be either a one time gift or a pledge over three years of $25,000 or more to the Foundation. All donor established scholarships entitle the donor to name the fund and define restrictions (subject to the acceptance of the Foundation Board) to be attached to the fund. We're easy to work with, so give us a try. Contact Scott Bova ( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ) for more information.

The Loan Program
The Triangle Education Foundation, through the generosity of Alumni brothers and others, is able to make a limited number of loans each year to deserving Active members of Triangle Fraternity to help them complete their education. Currently, $12,000 is available per year; the year begins on July 1. Applications which cannot be funded in a given year will be considered in the next.

Download the application form.

Procedure, size and repayment of loans
Applicants must submit the attached application forms, completed in detail; a current transcript from their college or university; and two letters of recommendation, which are described later. Applications are mailed to the Chairman of the TEF Loan Committee, for review and approval or disapproval. Upon approval, the borrower will be notified by letter, which will also forward for execution a promissory note payable to the Triangle Education Foundation. Upon return of the executed note to the National Office, a check will be issued. An applicant may borrow up to $3000. The maximum number of loans per student is one. No interest is charged, but borrowers are invited to make a contribution of any amount they may choose with or following their last payment to help perpetuate and enlarge the Foundation loan program. Repayment is made in up to 12 monthly installments. Payments on all loans shall commence on the first day of the third month following graduation or leaving school. There is a penalty for late payments.

Eligibility
Loan applicants shall: a.) be Active members of Triangle Fraternity who are enrolled in a course of study leading to a degree; b.) shall have completed at least two full academic years of school; c.) shall be within two academic years of graduation, and; d.) shall have maintained, as of time of application, the minimum scholastic average required for graduation in their chosen majors.

Loans are available to students who are able to show that the requested financial assistance is necessary for continued attendance at the college or university. An applicant should be able to demonstrate that within the restrictions of his present course of study he is now making a personal effort to earn part of the cost of his education or has exhausted other means of assistance

Borrower responsibility
Foundation funds available to Triangle members are the result of the donations of many groups and individuals, and represent their willingness to help fellow Triangles. Only prompt repayment of loans will enable the Foundation to continue and expand assistance of this kind. A borrower should understand that unless he repays his loan on schedule, he will deprive some deserving Triangle brother of the same financial assistance he has been granted.

He should further understand that the loan is a legal obligation, and failure to completely repay his loan and all applicable penalties will sadly cause the Foundation to use all legal measures to collect. The Foundation may also arrange for the expulsion of the defaulting borrower from membership in Triangle. That will not, however, constitute satisfaction of the debt.

If, through some unavoidable circumstance, repayment according to the terms of the note is impossible, extension will be considered upon request to the Foundation made by the borrower in writing to the National Office.
