Membership Requirements

There are four main requirements for joining the society as a new member. These requirements for admission can be flexible given certain circumstances. Please contact Joanne Selinski with any specific questions about membership criteria.
  • Credits: Undergraduates must have completed at least 18 graded credits in computer science classes. Graduate students must have completed at least 5 full courses towards their computer science degree.
  • GPA: Normally above a 3.5 is acceptable and below a 3.0 is not. If you have a somewhat lower GPA than required but have an intense computer science workload or special research and work experience, you may still be considered.
  • Attendance: Members are obligated to attend the initiation ceremony as well as any meetings that may occur throughout the year.
  • Fee: There is a one-time initiation fee of $60.
If you believe that you can meet these criteria, please send a copy of your resume to Joanne Selinski for review before March 9th.
