Each year, the Interfraternity Council (IFC) – representing the fraternity men of the University of Northern Colorado – offers a scholarship to recognize incoming male students who exemplify the core values: academic excellence, leadership, and integrity. 

Young men who demonstrate all of these values should be uplifted during their pursuit of education, becoming leaders and mentors to others around them and serving as role models and examples of honorable men, not just on campus but in their communities as well.

This scholarship seeks to support men who strive to make a positive impact both in and out of the classroom.

Any incoming male freshman or first-semester male transfer student who will attend the University of Northern Colorado in the fall may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they have leadership experience or community service experience.

If I could press a button to instantly improve something about myself, I would most want to improve my work ethic and drive. With how the state of jobs and education is today, you need to constantly be working hard in order to get ahead and achieve your dreams. To achieve my dream, of being an actor, is a lot of luck, but as Thomas Jefferson said, “I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.” If I’m going to make this career work, drive will be key.

I would personally like to improve my physical, mental, and educational well-being. My goal physically is to make sure I am in shape and to gain overall athleticism for the sports I love. My goal for my mental health is to make sure I have self-management skills so that I can interact through my social life with confidence and reassurance. Lastly, my educational goal for my life is to make sure I can still learn, even outside of school, so that I am growing every day, even if it is by a little bit.
