The cost of membership may include a fee of $85.00, but please don’t let this be your only barrier. Our Phi Theta Kappa Chapter fundraises each year to offer assistance with membership fees based on a student’s financial need and subsequent commitment to become involved. If you are interested, please contact our chapter contact advisor, Shari Brooks, at sbrooks@starkstate.edu.

If you are not yet eligible to join but are on track to becoming eligible, you may become active as a provisional member and attend all chapter events and conferences. The only limitations are that you do not have voting rights or the opportunity to serve as an officer until you are a full member. If this interests you please contact our chapter contact advisor, Shari Brooks, at sbrooks@starkstate.edu.
