Sigma Alpha Mu takes pride in the academic success of its members.  Motivation for this academic success comes from a rich history of achievement since our Fraternity was founded in 1909. The tone is set from the very beginning of a member's involvement with the Fraternity. All new members are rewarded with a Guller Scholarship in the amount of $300 when they achieve  a grade point average of 3.75 or better during the semester of their candidacy.

We recruit men with the track record of academic excellence. High-school SAT/ACT scores are considered as factors for acceptance into our brotherhood. Our Educational Foundation also supports the academic achievement of our members. In addition to needs-based scholarships, our Foundation awards students with Academic-Based Scholarships for exceptional performance in school. Last year, over 140 members received over $110,000 in scholarship assistance.

During the previous school year, several of our chapters achieved a grade point average higher than 3.0. Eight chapters led their campus in Fall GPA and five chapters were #1 on their campus in the Spring. Our chapters at Michigan and Texas earned the distinction of #1 GPA on campus for the entire school year.

Aside from those chapters leading their campus in grade point average, we have twenty three chapters with a GPA over a 3.0.
