WHY JOIN PHI KAPPA PHI
  • Standards for election  are extremely high. Membership is by invitation only to the top 7.5 percent of juniors and the top 10 percent of seniors and graduate students. Because Phi Kappa Phi is highly selective, membership is a stamp of excellence that is recognized by graduate and professional school admissions committees and employers alike.

They're often leaders in their field and committed to serving others. 
  • Membership in Phi Kappa Phi recognizes and rewards academic success. New members are initiated at a ceremony and reception/banquet held on their campus.

New members also may opt-in to receive a  personalized story and press release  about their initiation. 
  • Phi Kappa Phi logo graphics and verification letters are available to enhance your résumé. While Phi Kappa Phi is much more than a line on a résumé, it is an impressive line none-the-less.
