In order to be eligible for PTK, students must have completed at least 12 hours of coursework toward an associate or bachelor’s degree (or at least six hours of coursework toward a one-year certificate) and have a cumulative 3.5 grade point average.
Active participation in PTK helps students build personal connections with a network of likeminded people around the United States and in other countries. PTK members are eligible for millions of dollars in exclusive scholarships and grants, as well as opportunities to build the honor society’s four hallmarks of scholarship, leadership, fellowship and service.
PTK was founded on Nov. 19, 1918. The DC3 Kappa Psi Chapter was chartered on April 21, 1960.
