Golden Key believes in rewarding its members for their academic, leadership and service excellence. To this end, the organization maintains 18 different scholarship programs available solely to its members. The Society rewards more than 700 members annually with exclusive scholarships exceeding US$400,000.

One of the scholarship programs, the Chapter Undergraduate Scholarships, are issued at each chapter. This scholarship program is administered independently at each chapter with criteria selection varying by campus. Please check with your chapter leadership for application instructions (leadership contacts are listed under the chapter directory). Chapter Undergraduate Scholarship winners are selected annually at each chapter by the chapter leadership.

The additional 17 scholarship programs require a formal application. Each scholarship has a unique submission deadline and application process. For details about each of the 17 scholarship programs, please go to the scholarship listing. All scholarship submissions must be in English.

Impartial selection committees composed of educators specializing in fields specific to each scholarship program will select the winners. In selecting the winners, the committees will consider a number of factors related directly to each program. These factors are outlined in the scholarship listing. The decision of the selection committees are final and are not subject to appeal.
