International Exchange Scholarship

Scholarship Description

The International Exchange Scholarship is open to members in good standing of either organization who are interested in building international understanding, keyed to the principals of TKE and the Corps. Applicants are required to research the other organization and to submit an essay (500-750 words) providing a concise explanation of the founding principles and member educational objectives . . . of the Student Corps in the case of TKE applicants and of TKE in the case of Student Corps applicants.
