Phi Theta Kappa
Do you have a 3.50 GPA or higher with at least 12 credit hours taken at SMCC? Congratulations! In recognition of your scholastic achievement, you will be receiving an invitation letter from Phi Theta Kappa within the next few weeks.
Our Mission
Phi Theta Kappa's
mission is two-fold:
1. Recognize and
encourage the academic achievement of two-year college students and;
2. Provide opportunities
for individual growth and development through participation in honors,
leadership, service and fellowship programming.
Phi Theta Kappa is the International Honor Society of two-year colleges. Not only is this a recognition of your grades; it's an opportunity to become an active member of your campus community. Through leadership positions and hallmark education programs in the college chapter (Alpha Chi Nu), you can build skills to add to your resume and four-year college applications.
Phi Theta Kappa offers proprietary programs to help you reach your goals. With CollegeFish.org, your enrollment (free to PTK members!) provides a college completion tool and transfer options. Many students find their best fit utilizing "the fish bowl" in finding schools and scholarship to advance their education.
With your membership, you'll also have free access to Five Star Competitive Edge. This personal and professional development plan helps build marketable skills and an online portfolio. Get a leg up on the competition for scholarships, transferring and your dream job. Your college classes are only part of your education. Soft skills - such as communication, professional etiquette, team building and critical thinking - are just as important and can give you an advantage over others.
In 2012, Alpha Chi Nu was recognized as Most Distinguished Chapter of the New England Region (56 chapters in 5 states). We've had students serve at New England Regional and International Officer levels. There are lots of opportunity for growth and challenge available to you.
