Becoming a Member of Phi Theta Kappa: What You Need to Know

 

While no time commitment is required of members, participation in Society programs and activities can help you develop the skills and experiences necessary for employment and many transfer scholarship applications.

               

              Phi Theta Kappa provides three methods for accepting membership:

   

1.   Attend any one of the orientation sessions listed below and submit your completed membership application and fee. During the orientation you will learn about the benefits of Phi Theta Kappa membership. The orientation will provide you with specific information about the honor society, the chapter at Pima College, and its programs. Immediately following the orientation, chapter officers will be available to answer questions and accept your membership application and onetime fee of $75.00. If you cannot attend an orientation or need additional time to consider membership, you may select one of the two remaining methods of membership. If you are unable to afford the application fee, a limited number of scholarships are available for those in need. Print and fill out the form found here.
