Sigma Pi Sigma Induction Folder
Induction into Sigma Pi Sigma is a lifetime membership. Each new member pays to the National Office an entrance fee of $54.00 at the time of their reception into Sigma Pi Sigma. Induction includes a one-year membership in the Society of Physics Students (SPS) or a one-year extension if currently an SPS member.
A quick guide to initiate and complete your induction process using myhonorsociety.com. To invite a group of new members in bulk, we recommend using our Excel Template in Induction Resources folder.
