About Phi Eta Sigma...
Phi
Eta Sigma is a national honor society inspired by the past and dedicated to the
future. Our goal is to encourage and reward academic excellence among freshmen
in
institutions of higher learning.
The oldest and largest
freshmen honor society, Phi Eta Sigma, was founded at the University
of Illinois
on March 22,1923. It now has more than 300 chapters throughout the United States
and more than 600,000 members.
Phi Eta Sigma was voted
membership into the Association of College Honor Societies in 1937.
Only three
societies have had longer continuous membership.
Induction is an outward
recognition of personal accomplishment and serves as an incentive for
continued
high scholarship. It provides members the opportunity to meet freshmen scholars
from
all academic disciplines on their campuses and to join them in promoting
academic excellence.
Members may apply for scholarships provided by
national and some local chapters
Membership in Phi Eta Sigma identifies members to employers,
professional and graduate
schools as a person of superior ability and
performance.
