2025-2026 Omega Zeta Zeta Scholarship Application

Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc was founded on the campus of Howard University on January 16, 1920 by five amazing women. Zeta Phi Beta Sorority is excited to pay homage to the first women who believed in the need for a new and different type of Greek-lettered organization and acted upon that need. To these women, Zeta was more than an organization: it was a movement. Zeta was a belief system that reflected, at its core, the desire to provide true Service, to embrace Scholarship, to set a standard for Sisterly Love and to define the noble concept of Finer Womanhood.

The Omega Zeta Zeta Chapter of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc would like to present five (5) scholarships, for the academic school year of 2025 - 2026, in honor of our five founding members: Arizona Cleaver Stemons, Pearl Anna Neal, Myrtle Tyler Faithful, Viola Tyler Goings, and Fannie Pettie Watts. One (1) tuition scholarship will be awarded to a graduating female senior in the amount of $1,920. Additionally, four (4) scholarships will be awarded to graduating female seniors in the amount of $1,000 each.

Applicants must be a graduating female senior from the area high schools listed on the following page. The application must be postmarked and received by Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., Omega Zeta Zeta Chapter - Scholarship Committee, 4320 Deerwood Lake Parkway, Suite 101-514, Jacksonville, Florida 32216 or by electronic application on or before April 11, 2026. Applications that are postmarked/received electronically after April 11, 2026 will not be considered.

Education is the key to excellence and we are excited about making a change in the lives of our youth through this prestigious scholarship opportunity. Best wishes to all applicants in their educational pursuits.

Sincerely,

The Women of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc.

Omega Zeta Zeta Chapter – Scholarship Committee
