$500 MS State Scholarship for Senior Men

 I am the Recruitment Chairman for Sigma Nu Fraternity here at Mississippi State University. We are offering one $500 scholarship to one high school senior male attending Mississippi State in the fall of 2013. We look for the winner of our “Freshman Leadership Scholarship” to demonstrate a commitment to excellence in the classroom and show his involvement in his community through extracurricular activities and leadership positions. It should be noted that one does not need to be interested in fraternity to win this scholarship as membership is not required to win. The due date to mail in the application is April 11th, 2014. The College Counseling office has the application form.

 If you have any questions feel free to email me at gam166@msstate.edu or call me on my cell phone at (901)351-0409.
