Value: $5,000.00
Awards Available: 80
Deadline : Jan 09, 2026

Quick overview
DECA awards more than $200,000 in scholarships each year at the International Career Development Conference (ICDC). DECA Inc. administers the program according to the donor’s guidelines, and all DECA scholarships are strictly merit‑based.

How to apply
- You must apply through the DECA scholarship website.
- Create an account by clicking “CREATE AN ACCOUNT” and completing your information to begin your application.
Tip: start your account early so you have time to complete the application without rushing.

Frequently asked questions (short, clear answers)

1) Do I have to attend ICDC to receive a scholarship?
No. Attending ICDC is not required to receive a DECA scholarship.

2) Do I have to be a current DECA member? How do I become one?
Yes — you must be a current DECA member to be eligible. If your school has a DECA chapter, register through the chapter advisor. If you’re not sure whether your school has a chapter, ask your school counselor or contact a DECA advisor.

3) Do I have to be a high school senior to apply?
No. Members from all grade levels — from high school freshmen through Collegiate DECA members — may apply unless a specific scholarship states otherwise. If an application has a grade‑level or collegiate restriction, that will be clearly noted.

If you have any questions, check with your chapter advisor or school counselor — they’re the best first contacts to help you through the process.
