The Balanced Man Scholarship is one way that the Georgetown University Chapter of Sigma Phi Epsilon promotes the Balanced Man ideal. The Balanced Man Scholarship enables our chapter to recognize outstanding men who exemplify our philosophy by living balanced lives and striving for excellence in every endeavor amidst the very challenging Georgetown academic environment. We find that qualified Balanced Man Scholarship applicants make great potential members because their personal ideals and aspirations are already congruent with SigEp's. However, the Balanced Man Scholarship is awarded based on merit alone and the applicants need not join the Georgetown Chapter in order to win.
The winner will be determined based on their overall commitment to the pursuit of a Sound Mind in a Sound Body. Emphasis is placed on academics, athletic involvement, leadership experience, and community service. The application process includes two stages. First, the initial application must be submitted by January 31, 2010 at midnight. Following the receipt of your application, a brief phone interview will take place. From this greater pool of applicants, a smaller group will be selected as finalists and will be awarded a final interview. Winners will be announced at the end of February.
