As part of the 2021 Most Valuable Student Scholarship contest, the top 20 Most Valuable Student scholars will come together for the 2021 Leadership Weekend April 22-25, 2021. The plan to come together in-person is tentative, given the COVID-19 pandemic. However, participation in either an in-person or virtual Leadership Weekend is required to be eligible for the top awards.

The Leadership Weekend offers a chance for the the top 20 scholars to interview for the chance at a $30,000, $40,000, or $50,000 scholarship (all will receive scholarships of at least $20,000), but the weekend is about so much more. It's a chance for scholars to come together with their Elks family and make lasting, lifelong connections.
