Summary
The Pi Delta Psi Alumni Association proudly sponsors the annual $500 Alumni Scholarship, awarded to the undergraduate brother who best lives out our core values: Academic Achievement, Cultural Awareness, Righteousness, Friendship, and Loyalty.
This year, we’re excited to introduce a second award — the Renegade Recipient Scholarship, honoring the legacy of Brother Huy Huynh. Huy was a true renegade whose passion, leadership, and loyalty left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him.
Both scholarships use the same application and eligibility criteria, but the Renegade Recipient Scholarship goes to a brother who stands out for fearless individuality — someone who doesn’t just follow the path but blazes their own.
Through these scholarships, we celebrate brotherhood, honor our history, and inspire the next generation of leaders.
Apply for the Scholarship
Both Scholarships are awarded annually, and we encourage all eligible undergraduate brothers to apply.
📌 Application Deadline: End of May
For any questions, please contact the Alumni Association.

🎓 Meet Thomas Kuo – 2025 Renegade Scholarship Recipient
Thomas is a Government major at Cornell University with minors in Business, Law and Society, and Asian American Studies. As a brother of the Alpha Tau class, he has held numerous leadership positions including Warden, Rush Chair, and Cultural Chair, while also serving across Cornell’s multicultural and Asian American communities.
Despite a full academic and service load (including three exec boards, two jobs, and graduate-level law courses), Thomas has remained deeply committed to uplifting others. His resilience, cultural leadership, and selfless contributions make him a perfect fit for the Renegade Scholarship.
🎓 Meet Gebril Fradj – 2025 Alumni Scholarship Recipient
Gebril is a Computer Science major at the University of Florida who joined Pi Delta Psi this year and is already making an impact. Despite being a new brother, he stepped up as Academic Chair and Social Chair, embodying leadership from day one. With a 3.87 GPA, multiple internships, and deep involvement in research and community service, Gebril’s dedication to excellence, service, and brotherhood sets a powerful example.
