"Phi Theta Kappa has given me opportunities to grow as both a student and a leader while connecting me with an incredible community of people who truly believe in student success. This scholarship helps me continue pursuing my nursing and healthcare goals while creating meaningful change for other students along the way." - Ariana Lazo, Red Rocks Community College, CO.

"Receiving the Christopher A. Calhoun Transfer Scholarship is a reminder that resilience and hard work truly matter. As a first-generation Latina, and a non-traditional student, PTK has given me the confidence and support to continue pursuing my dreams of earning a degree in criminal justice, attending law school, and one day advocating for others." - Roxana Arias, Spartanburg Community College, SC.

Congratulations to Renee Cortez, one of our 2026 PTK Alumni Hall of Honor recipients.

Renee believes that no student should miss out on the Phi Theta Kappa experience simply because of cost. She is actively involved in fundraising efforts that help cover membership fees for eligible students who are experiencing financial hardship. Renee understands that joining PTK can be intimidating, especially for students who may not feel they belong in academic spaces. At Catalyst 2024 she noticed a scholarship recipient from her region who was nervous about walking onstage. Renee made sure that student was celebrated – cheering loudly and encouraging others to do the same. What could have been a moment of fear became one of pride and belonging. That support made a lasting impact and that student remains engaged with PTK today as an alum.

“There was a time when community college felt like the end of the road to me, but Phi Theta Kappa completely changed that narrative. Through Phi Theta Kappa and the support of the Coca-Cola Academic Team scholarship, I’ve found purpose, leadership, and a community that inspires me to become the best version of myself.” - Parsa Vard, Calhoun Community College, AL.

"My experience in Phi Theta Kappa has been incredibly positive! Through PTK I was able to give back to my college campus that has done so much for me. Alongside other driven individuals like myself, I gained leadership experience and professional development skills that will benefit me for years to come. I feel so blessed to have received multiple scholarships through this society which greatly support my future academic and career goals as I transfer to a four-year university to earn my bachelor's degree." -

“It only takes one person to believe in you, and that belief begins with yourself. Being a Guistwhite Scholar made me realize that when passion and genuine care for those around you are shown with love and charisma, they become impossible to ignore. Because others believed in me too, I will now be able to transfer to a four-year university and continue my studies while carrying the same love and dedication that have always guided me. I will also become the first woman in my family to transfer to a four-year institution in the United States, where I will continue pursuing higher education and never stop striving for more. But more than that, PTK, you changed my life.” - Hilary Ramirez Payamps, Miami Dade College Padrón Campus, FL.

"Coming to the U.S. and navigating my path as an international student was full of challenges, but I stayed determined to keep my promise to my mother to complete my education. Winning the New Century Transfer Pathway Scholarship confirmed I was on the right track, opening the door to a full-tuition transfer scholarship to Ole Miss University. I am deeply grateful to PTK and the Coca-Cola Foundation for this life-changing opportunity, and I want to remind every student: don't give up—if I can do it, you can too." - Pham Trung Hieu, Salt Lake Community College, UT.
