Dear Applicant:

Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. was founded on January 16, 1920 by five young women attending Howard University in Washington, D.C. Two of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority’s founding principles are to encourage the highest standards of scholarship and to promote community service.

Each year, Xi Zeta Zeta Chapter of San Jose, in conjunction with the Xi Zeta Zeta Educational Foundation, offers scholarships to outstanding African-American high school seniors in the greater Santa Clara county area who exemplify excellence in academic achievement and community service.

To be considered for the scholarship, you must meet the following eligibility requirements:

Z Minimum GPA of 2.5

Z Current transcript (must include Fall term grades)

Z Two letters of recommendation

Z Personal essay

Z Signature of Senior Guidance Counselor on application

Selected candidates will be interviewed on February 15, 2010 in person before final selections are made.

Your application must be postmarked by February 8, 2010. Applications that are late or in-complete will not be considered for this scholarship opportunity.

After final selections are made, scholarship recipients will be notified by phone. Recipients are expected to be our guests at the Xi Zeta Zeta Educational Foundation’s Finer Womanhood Recognition Event honoring them on March 20, 2010, at the Crown Plaza Hotel in Milpitas. Scholarship money will be mailed upon receipt of proof of enrollment from the college or university that you will be attending.
