The Balanced Man Scholarship (BMS) is awarded to incoming freshmen who embody the Fraternity’s values and ideals: Virtue, Diligence, Brotherly Love, Sound Mind, and Sound Body. The recipient of this award need not be a brother of SigEp; the opportunity is available to all incoming freshmen men who wish to apply. The Balanced Man Scholarship originated in 1990 at the Cincinnati Chapter, as a way to attract men of Sound Mind and Sound Body, while rewarding them for espousing the ideals of the Fraternity. The Scholarship is currently OPEN and will close on August 22, 2022.
