National Convention Grants
Mu Alpha Theta will award four $2800 Convention Grants to the
2011 Dallas 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 reimbursed travel expenses.
To be eligible for a Grant, a Mu Alpha Theta chapter cannot have attended a National
Convention in the past five years. No chapter that has previously been awarded a Grant may apply.
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 apply.
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!
