Scholarships

Sigma Nu Fraternity has partnered with a diverse group of fraternities and alumni to form the Men’s College Scholarship to award $50,000 in scholarships this year to inspire young men to attend college and achieve academic success. This program is exclusively for high school seniors and complements the scholarships offered through the Sigma Nu Educational Foundation. 

We encourage you to share the Men’s College Scholarship with male high school seniors in your family and circle of friends. This program will also allow the Fraternity to communicate the benefits and values of the fraternity experience with applicants, which is essential to helping your chapter grow. 

Did you know? 

Recent research shows that fewer men than women are going to college than ever, and even fewer are graduating. According to enrollment data from the National Student Clearinghouse, last school year, women made up 59.5% of college students, an all-time high, and men 40.5%. Additionally, undergraduate enrollment fell by 3.1% – nearly 500,000 students. 

Men are choosing paths other than college. We seek to counter this trend. 

The scholarship is designed to identify and reward outstanding high school seniors who have demonstrated an ability to excel in academics, extra-curricular activities, and community involvement. The scholarship is available to any male, graduating senior from an accredited high school who is enrolling in a four-year undergraduate college program in Fall 2023. The scholarship is awarded through the Foundation for Fraternal Excellence. Current or future membership in a fraternity is not required. 

Again, we feel a college education is important and opens the door to the many potential benefits of fraternity membership. As you know, fraternities are an accelerator for success in college and beyond. 

Please share this application with high school seniors and their parents today! The application deadline is April 3, 2023, and scholarships will be awarded in Summer 2023.
