FAQS
Is the membership annual and how much will the fee be next year?
The membership is a lifetime membership and the $60 fee is only collected one time (upon induction).
What will be required of me if I join?
Nothing is required of our members. You can be as active as you want; it’s entirely up to you. We will, however offer you services, activities, debates, conferences and more.
Phi Theta Kappa sounds like a Fraternity, what is it really?
It is NOT a Fraternity/Sorority. It is an Honor Society, which serves to recognize and encourage the academic achievement of the two-year college student and provide opportunities for individual growth and development.
If my GPA drops below 3.75 will I lose my membership?
The acceptable GPA after induction is 3.5. Even if your GPA falls below that you will still have at least one semester to bring it up again.
I can’t come up with $60 for the membership fee, what now?
If you think you may have trouble with the membership fee don’t let that stop you from receiving these benefits, please call 292-2533 or 292-2744. We can always work something out.
If you have any further questions feel free to stop by the Phi Theta Kappa office in 3-133 or the Campus Center Office in 3-126.
