Sigma Chis who continue into post-graduate studies will find a wealth of scholarship opportunities from the Foundation.
The Sigma Chi Fellowship
Formerly the Balfour Fellowship, graduate brothers serving as Sigma Chi Fellows offer academic advising to an undergraduate chapter. Sigma Chi Fellows collaborate with local Sigma Chi volunteers and members of the university community to foster an educational environment, personal growth and development in an undergraduate chapter. Sigma Chi Fellows are funded by an individual chapter's scholarship award fund, local alumni chapters, the generosity of several key alumni or the Canadian Foundation.
Subject to local funding, these $3,000 graduate student scholarship grants from the Sigma Chi Foundation are available to qualified brothers.
