In an effort to promote and recognize scholarship, the Fraternity initiated a program to recognize selected students as Beta Alpha Psi National Scholars. Five areas of scholarly activity were designated as follows:

Literary Scholar (LS)		Undergraduate Manuscript Contest
Research Scholar (RS)		Graduate Manuscript Contest
Regional Meeting Scholar (RM)		Regional Meeting Presentation
Thomas J. Burns National Seminar Scholar (NSS)		National Student Seminar Presentation
Graduate Case Scholar (GCS)		Graduate Case Seminar

Selection of individuals to be designated as Scholars occurred as part of the evaluation process which exists for each of the events. Those selected as Scholars have participated with a high level of scholarly quality in the traditional sense of the word.

Each Chapter is encouraged to select individuals to participate in these activities of the Fraternity and to recognize in an appropriate forum those students who have been designated Beta Alpha Psi National Scholars.
