Application Information

September 1, 2024:

We are returning to our roots where membership acceptance applications are automatically sent to all qualified graduate and undergraduate students starting in mid- and late- January, at the start of the Spring semester. 

If you don't wish to wait until January or February to join, you can email the chapter advisor, andrea.vickery@oswego.edu, and ask for your information to be verified in the Fall semester during late August and early September. This way you can join and be active during the Fall semester or receive your materials in time for a December graduation ceremony.

 We will not hold a Fall induction ceremony but will order your materials instead of having you wait until Spring. 

Fall deadlines:

Email to request verification of records by September 15. Include your student ID# in the email.

You will receive an invitation with an offer to join our chapter by email within 3 days of your request. This invitation letter will detail how to accept and join LPH including how to pay dues. 

Deadline to accept and pay dues is September 30. Materials will then be ordered from the national office. 

If you miss the September 30 deadline, your information can still be verified and your dues can still be paid, but your materials won't be ordered until Spring. 

Spring Deadlines

Qualified students will receive an email between January 25-January 30. (Please be patient; it takes about 15 minutes to verify each student! The Department chair provides a list of students with the overall GPA and credit hours, but major/minor GPA and coursework has to be individually verified in Degreeworks. Most years this overall list starts at 800 and is narrowed down to 175-200 eligible students). 

Students will have until February 15 to accept and join. 

If students miss the February 15 deadline, their materials will not be ordered until the next semester.
