Deadline February 3, 2027 (confirm in Application Guide) 137 days left · Hosted by Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation (Gamma Omicron chapter, University of Wyoming) · Published

The Marie Mathew Rask-Gamma Omicron Educational Endowment 2027 is a named Kappa Kappa Gamma Foundation award, typically $3,000, for full-time undergraduate members of Gamma Omicron at the University of Wyoming. Marie Mathew Rask''s gift supports Wyoming Kappas finishing their degrees, and public scholarship catalogs describe a backup line for Eta Province if Gamma Omicron has no qualified applicant. Eta Province covers chapters in Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. You complete the standard undergraduate merit-based or need-based Foundation application once; reviewers may match your file to the Rask endowment when chapter affiliation and qualifications align. CareerOneStop lists a February 3 deadline and $3,000 annual funding. Kappa''s national cycle also closes in early February at 5 p.m. Eastern, so verify the live Application Guide before you submit.

What is the Marie Mathew Rask-Gamma Omicron Educational Endowment?

Gamma Omicron has been the Kappa Kappa Gamma chapter at the University of Wyoming for generations, and Marie Mathew Rask left an educational endowment so active members could worry less about tuition gaps during their last semesters. The Marie Mathew Rask-Gamma Omicron Educational Endowment pays about $3,000 toward the next academic year without asking you to fill out a second form. You tell your story once through the Kappa Foundation portal, and reviewers decide whether your file fits this named fund.

Public scholarship catalogs add a useful detail Wyoming members should know. If no qualified Gamma Omicron applicant emerges in a given cycle, the dollars may flow to another member in Eta Province, which ties together chapters across Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. That backup keeps the endowment working even when chapter size or applicant pools shift year to year.

February 3 appears on CareerOneStop, while Kappa''s national guide often closes a few days later at 5 p.m. Eastern. Build your calendar around the PDF, not a blog repost. For other chapter-specific Kappa funds, see the Lambda Project 2000 Scholarship 2027 guide or the Dallas Alumnae Gamma Phi Scholarship 2027 guide.
