As a result, Theta Boule, through the Boule Scholars Program Scholarship, seeks to create a resource to stem the systemic degradation of Black male student’s academic achievement by offering a Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500) renewable scholarship, which can be obtained up to a maximum of four years for a total of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000).
In addition to the Theta Boule Scholars Program Scholarship, the awardee will be eligible to compete for the national Sigma Pi Phi Fraternity Grand Boule Scholars Program Scholarship in an amount to be determined.
