TriBeta Levels of Involvement 

Since our goal is to encourage the growth of community within the Biology major, we encourage any and all people to attend our events, regardless of membership! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to our co-president Dave Young at youngdav@uw.edu.


​Associate Member:

At this level of involvement, you can be of any major and may attend club activities. It is encouraged that you take advantage of becoming an Associate Member if you are still working on the fulfillment of Full Membership course requirements. The fee for Associate Membership is $45 and will count towards Full Membership fee if you choose to join as a Full Member in the future. Associate membership expires upon graduation. At this level of involvement you may vote and serve as an officer.


Full Member:

A Full Member must complete both a curriculum and GPA requirements:

There is a one-time $55 membership fee associated with this level of membership. Full membership is a lifetime membership to the national TriBeta honor society and continues after graduation. Full members will get a special cord and recognition at the Biology Department Graduation, and have the ability to apply to TriBeta funded grants and research awards. 

Our officer team is currently working on resuming our partnership with Kaplan, which has historically allowed Full Members access to a wide variety Kaplan course codes.

Listed below is a link to the Google form (UW NetID required) to apply for Full Membership or Associate Membership. Make sure to carefully read through the instructions on submitting required materials.
