The Alpha Delta Phi Foundation (“Foundation”) runs two literary competitions, one for undergraduate students and one for college alumni. The alumni competition is made possible through a generous donation by the Bowdoin Alpha Delta Phi Chapter Alumni Association.

If you’re looking for information about the undergraduate competition, please click here for the Undergraduate Literary Competition rules and application information.

The Alpha Delta Phi Foundation Alumni Literary Competition is open to all alumni members of the Alpha Delta Phi Fraternity or the Alpha Delta Phi Society. “Alumni” includes any Alpha Delt member who is not currently an undergraduate student. There are four distinct categories: Fiction, Non-Fiction, Poetry, and Photography. The application processes for some categories are identical and may be combined into a single submission area, such as a single entry form for Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Poetry.
