The Discovering NGLA Scholarship provides financial support for fraternity and sorority delegations to attend the NGLA Annual Conference. This scholarship aims to ease the financial burden on chapters or councils, enabling them to benefit from the rich educational experience offered by the NGLA Annual Conference.

The Discovering NGLA Scholarship will support the full registration for four attendees and one advisor. Travel and lodging are not included in this scholarship.

We recommend that an advisor or staff member apply on behalf of the delegation. The main applicant will be notified of the result.
