Residency Requirement
To be eligible for membership in Omicron Delta Kappa, applicants must have one full semester completed at your institution.

O∆K policies state that the student must have completed one semester and have a GPA at your institution to be eligible for membership. 

This student cannot be accepted for initiation into the Society at this time. Please inform the student, reject their application, and encourage them to apply once they have met the residency requirement. 

If you have any questions, please email Jamie Bouldin, director for membership services, at [email protected]. 

Recipient's Financial Need (check all that apply)

You may not submit a Gift of Membership request for this student until you have more information about their specific financial needs. Please discuss these with the student and complete the form when you have details to share. 

If the form is submitted without information regarding the student's financial needs, the gift request will not be considered. If you have any questions, please email Jamie Bouldin, director for membership services, at [email protected]. 

Describe the student's financial constraints. If the student is not receiving need-based financial aid, does this student have a demonstrated financial personal or family situation such as death, serious illness, loss of job or home, being a sole provider, etc. that prevents them from paying the National Initiation Fee?
Please provide a brief justification for why you believe this student should receive the Gift of Membership and how their inclusion in O∆K will benefit the individual, the circle, and the Society.
Type of Grant Requested *
Dr. Tara S. Singer Grants are available to any prospective member with financial need. If the student is a member of a historically underrepresented and marginalized ethnic population (Black or African American, Hispanic or Latino, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian or Asian American, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander) they qualify for a Key Fund Grant. Each year, a circle may request two Singer Grants, two Key Fund Grants, or one of each.
