Outstanding Chapters & Scholarship Recipients

Over the years, the Outstanding Chapter Awards have recognized chapters that demonstrate excellence in chapter performance. Since 1995, an additional benefit of receiving an Outstanding Chapter Award is the ability to award an additional Beta Gamma Sigma Scholarship to an outstanding student member from the chapter. Collegiate chapters that have been active and earned Highest Honors are eligible to showcase their achievements through the Outstanding Chapter Awards process. The Outstanding Chapter Awards have been—and will continue to be—given to the chapters that best support the mission of Beta Gamma Sigma.

Beta Gamma Sigma invites our Highest Honors Chapters to nominate their chapters to be honored as a recipient of the Outstanding Chapter Awards.
