Application requirements will be posted when the 1999 competition is officially announced. The application deadline is usually March 15 for the chapter nomination and April 15 for the award itself. Each year, Pi Sigma Alpha chooses three undergraduate student papers as exemplary. The author must be a member of PSA currently enrolled in an undergraduate political science program. The paper must be an existing paper written for a class or for a related activity such as a panel or forum, not written just for this competition.
Application is a two state process, first for chapter nomination and then for the award itself.
Each chapter is allowed to nominate one member. Application requirements will be posted when the 1999 competition is officially announced.
