Jeri Housel

NCTC Psi Iota Member, Coca Cola Leaders of Promise Scholar

“I joined PTK for the scholarships. Everything else that has come with it, such as a massive global network of alumni, travel, and the ability to give back to the community, is why I will never regret it. $99 is a small price to pay for a lifetime of opportunity.”

Phi Theta Kappa is the world's largest honor society for community college students. The Psi Iota Chapter of North Central Texas College extends membership to those students who have earned a 3.5 GPA on at least 12 credit hours of coursework at NCTC which is transferable to a four year college.

Membership

Membership not only provides recognition but also opportunities to grow as a scholar, develop as a leader, and make a difference through service. Members of Phi Theta Kappa are part of a global community founded on academic excellence and dedicated to servant leadership.
