Who is eligible for Alpha Sigma Nu?

Membership is limited to those students in Jesuit institutions of higher education who possess to an outstanding degree the qualities of scholarship, loyalty and service. The candidate's loyalty to the institution and its principles must be unquestionable and apparent to all. Service, in the Alpha Sigma Nu sense, means not merely membership in organizations or even office holding, but actual sacrifice of time and energy in activities while attending this institution.

What is Alpha Sigma Nu?

Alpha Sigma Nu is an international honor society founded at Marquette University in 1915. Alpha Sigma Nu honors students of Jesuit colleges and universities who distinguish themselves in scholarship, loyalty, and service. Student membership is conferred on not more than five percent of the junior and senior class. Graduate students need to have completed one-half of the requirements for their degree at the time of nomination.
