"What you do in life by yourself doesn't mean as much as what you accomplish with a group of people. Sigma Chi was one of the best things that happened to me. I really appreciate what it has done for me in my lifetime and I hope I can continue to give something back."

The education program, P4B (Preparation for Brotherhood) as well as Sigma Chi's various leadership programs, have been perfected over 155+ years in order to develop character and values-based decision making. Research by Gallup and Purdue University suggests that fraternity men are more likely to thrive (physically, financially, emotionally) in their post-graduate years than non-members. The Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics reported that Greek organization members are more likely to participate in student government, perform volunteer work, and begin their careers immediately following graduation. Further research indicates that fraternity members are more involved in civics, take more leadership roles, and exhibit better communication and critical thinking skills than non-members. Fraternity men also report healthier relationships with their peers and greater job satisfaction in their post-graduate years. The University Learning Outcomes Assessment project, which measures the success of various academic programs, found that fraternity membership, on average, increases performance in every area of growth, learning, and development which they measure. 

Undergraduate members are given opportunities to take on leadership positions in their respective pledge class, our colony, and the international fraternity. In addition, our members are strongly encouraged to get involved on campus and in the community (more than 75% of the FSU colony of Sigma Chi belongs to at least one other student organization). These offices provide excellent training for the professional world. 

In addition to the education program, Sigma Chi offers several leadership conferences, seminars, and workshops. These programs include the Balfour Leadership Training Workshop, Horizons, CHOICES, and Mission 365. To learn more about Sigma Chi leadership programs click here. 

As a Sigma Chi, you will be part of the largest collegiate fraternity in the world with twice as many alumni chapters as any other Greek-letter society. With more than 300,000 members, you will have immense networking opportunities. 

Sigma Chi International offers several undergraduate and graduate scholarships to members. Last fiscal year alone, the Sigma Chi Foundation funded over $230,000 in undergraduate scholarships. 

Alumni of Sigma Chi don't say "I was a Sigma Chi" they say "I am a Sigma Chi." The bonds of our fellowship are lifelong because they are based on shared ideals and experiences - not similar personalities.  

We all come to college, for one thing, to get an education. This remains true in Sigma Chi and we hold ourselves to a higher academic standard. Sigma Chi offers academic support and tutoring from brothers in all areas of study. If anything, becoming a brother of Sigma Chi can help you improve your academic performance, after all, we do currently possess the highest average chapter GPA in the FSU IFC coomunity.
