Honor Society for Student Groups & Greek Organizations
Bring your involvement. Build your next opportunity.
Members of student groups, fraternities, and sororities are welcome to join Honor Society®. At HonorSociety.org, you can explore individual membership alongside your existing campus involvement.
Honor Society is an independent national membership organization supporting academic, professional, and personal growth. Discover scholarship opportunities, career resources, and ways to present the leadership and service experiences that matter to you.
Membership is open to all. No minimum GPA is required to join; academic recognition has separate criteria. Review membership requirements.
A place for the goals you bring from campus life.
A student organization can be where you learn to lead a meeting, manage a project, welcome new members, or follow through on a service commitment. Those experiences give you something concrete to build on as you consider your education and career.
Student clubs and campus leaders
Members of academic clubs, service organizations, student government, cultural organizations, and other student groups are welcome. Whether you hold an elected role or contribute behind the scenes, you can use your experiences to explain what you care about and what you are learning.
Fraternity and sorority members
Honor Society welcomes people who participate in fraternities and sororities. Membership can complement the goals you pursue through Greek life, including scholarship, service, and leadership. You join Honor Society as an individual; check your other organizations’ policies for any rules that apply to your participation.
Choose opportunities that fit your interests and available time. The value comes from the resources you use and the work you do with them.
Connect your involvement with useful next steps.
Scholarship opportunities
Explore awards that may fit your studies, service, leadership, or personal goals. Read the eligibility requirements, application instructions, and deadline for each program. Paid membership is not required to apply for Honor Society scholarships. Explore current scholarships.
Career preparation and learning
Review the educational content and career tools available through your membership. A useful starting point is a question you already have: which field interests you, what skills should you develop, or how can you prepare for an interview? Browse member benefits.
A clearer professional story
Use your member profile to bring together your education, interests, leadership, and service. Describe your contribution to a project and what you learned. Sign in to update your profile.
Benefits that fit your life
Compare participating learning, travel, dining, and other member offers with what you expect to use. Access, availability, and provider conditions vary by membership level and benefit. Review membership options and dues.
Help your members find opportunities that fit.
As a student leader, you know the interests and commitments within your group. You can help members explore resources by sharing a specific opportunity and explaining who it may be relevant to.
Share useful information
When sharing a scholarship, link to the award page so members can check eligibility and deadlines themselves. When sharing membership information, include the requirements and benefits pages so each person can decide whether the resources fit their goals.
Keep participation personal
Each person chooses whether to join and which membership option to use. Follow your organization’s communication policies, and describe shared resources accurately. Your group can continue pursuing its own mission while members explore opportunities independently.

Student groups and Greek life: frequently asked questions
Can I join Honor Society if I already belong to a student club, fraternity, or sorority?
Yes. Honor Society welcomes individual members who belong to other student organizations. Consider how the resources fit your goals and review any participation rules set by your existing organization. Explore Honor Society membership.
Is Honor Society a fraternity or sorority?
Honor Society® at HonorSociety.org is an independent membership organization focused on academic, professional, and personal growth. It is not a social fraternity or sorority, and joining does not enroll you in one. Organizations with similar names may have different purposes and requirements.
Does our student group join together, or do members join individually?
The membership described on this page is individual membership. Each person creates and manages their own account. If your group has a resource question or an idea for collaboration, contact Honor Society to discuss it; this page does not offer a group enrollment or sponsorship package.
Do we need to start an Honor Society campus chapter?
No. Honor Society has discontinued its former campus chapter model and focuses on resources and opportunities available directly to members. You can explore membership without establishing a chapter at your school. Read more about our current approach.
Can graduating students and alumni join Honor Society?
Yes. Honor Society welcomes students, graduates, and professionals. You do not need to remain enrolled in school or hold a campus leadership role to participate. Your membership can reflect the interests and goals you pursue beyond graduation. Review who can join.
Is there a minimum GPA for joining?
No minimum GPA is required for Honor Society membership. Academic recognition uses separate GPA-based criteria. Participation in a fraternity, sorority, or student group does not automatically establish an academic recognition tier. Review eligibility and recognition requirements.
Do I need paid membership to apply for Honor Society scholarships?
No. Paid membership is not required to apply for Honor Society scholarships. An application may require a free account. Eligibility, deadlines, and selection criteria vary by award, and membership does not guarantee a scholarship. Read the current scholarship details.
What does membership cost?
Free Basic membership is available. Premium membership provides additional benefits and renews every six months unless canceled. Review the selected plan’s current price, included resources, and renewal terms before purchasing. Compare membership options and dues.
Can student leaders share Honor Society resources with their members?
You can share links to public pages about scholarships, membership requirements, and benefits, subject to your school’s or organization’s communication policies. Sharing a resource does not establish an affiliation or endorsement. Students can contact Honor Society directly with account or invitation questions.
How can I describe campus involvement on my profile or résumé?
Name the organization, your role, and the dates of your involvement. Explain a specific contribution, such as coordinating a service project or supporting an event. Include measurable results only when you can substantiate them. Describe Honor Society membership separately from offices, awards, and academic recognition.
Does joining mean Honor Society sponsors or endorses my organization?
No. Individual membership does not establish sponsorship, approval, or a formal relationship between organizations. Questions about a potential collaboration should be discussed directly with Honor Society’s team.
Bring your experience. Choose your next step.
Whether you are a student member, a campus leader, or a graduate, you are welcome to explore Honor Society. Start with the resources that matter to you, ask questions, and choose the membership that fits your goals.
