Zeta Phi Beta Evette Pearson Fortenberry Scholarship

The Zeta Phi Beta Evette Pearson Fortenberry Scholarship is a merit-based scholarship awarded to members of the Zeta Phi Beta chapter at Eastern Illinois University. The scholarship recognizes academic achievement and leadership within the sorority while providing financial assistance to continuing members. Applicants must demonstrate good standing in the organization for at least one year, maintain a minimum 2.7 GPA, and submit an essay explaining how they will benefit from the award. Financial need is considered as part of the selection process. Recipients may reapply in subsequent years if they continue to meet the criteria. Awards are announced in the Spring semester and disbursed in the Fall semester.
