National Convention Grants

Mu Alpha Theta will award a limited number of $3000 Convention Grants to the 2012 Boston Convention. Each Grant will cover free registration for a sponsor and three students, who must not have graduated before the convention. The remaining funds may be used for additional student registration costs or to reimburse travel expenses. To be eligible for a Grant, a Mu Alpha Theta chapter cannot have attended a National Convention previously. The intent of the grant is to allow the teacher and students to see what our National Convention is all about. Only schools who have a math sponsor and three eligible students should fill out the application.

To apply for a Grant, complete the Application, which consists of the names of the applicants and two paragraphs about the activities your Chapter has participated in during the past year. We also ask how attending the National Mu Alpha Theta Convention will benefit your Chapter. Email the application by April 1 to matheta@ou.edu or snail mail to:

Schools selected will be contacted before the end of April by phone and email. The only responsibility of the winners is to fill out a survey after the Convention regarding their experiences. Applying schools should be ready to submit enrollment information should they be selected. Winners of the grants are encouraged to bring more than three students. Additional attendees will be granted the early bird registration rate, as long as full payment for them is received by the May 15 deadline. So, get your application in soon!
