The Ancient Greeks believed in developing a Sound Mind and a Sound Body as the way to live a fulfilling life. Sigma Phi Epsilon adopted this philosophy with the Balanced Man Ideal and since 1990 has awarded the Balanced Man Scholarship to some of the best male freshmen coming to campus.

The Balanced Man Scholarship awards incoming male freshmen who have excelled in athletics, leadership, academics, and service. Individuals who possess a Sound Mind are not only proficient in their classes, but take an interest in learning outside the classroom by taking on leadership roles and being active in the community.

The Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will be awarding three scholarships for the fall 2013 semester. The first place winner will receive $1000 while the second and third place winners will receive $750 and $250. There is no obligation to join Sigma Phi Epsilon if you receive one of three scholarships. Applications must be postmarked by June 30, 2013. Please download the application at the bottom of the page and send any questions to SigEp.BMS2013@gmail.com.
