UC Berkeley Panhellenic offers a range of academic resources for its members, including scholarships, academic hubs, and weekly study tables. These opportunities are not limited to PHC-wide offerings—each chapter also provides its own resources such as study materials, chapter-specific scholarships (listed under each chapter in the Chapter Directory), academic advising, and networking events with alumnae.

The scholarship theme, eligibility, and award amount vary each semester.
