The Phi Beta Kappa Society is a leading national advocate for the value of arts and sciences education. Our Key into Public Service program and scholarship opportunity highlights the wide range of opportunities for arts, humanities, natural science, social science, and mathematics majors to pursue rewarding careers in local, state, and federal government.

In recognition of the Society's 250th anniversary in 2026, each scholar will receive a $7,600 undergraduate scholarship and will participate in a conference that provides training, mentoring, and reflection on pathways into local, state, and federal government careers.

The 2025-2026 Key into Public Service Scholarship application is now closed. Applicants will be notified by the end of April, 2026. Questions? Contact our team by emailing advocacy@pbk.org.
