Kappa Delta Pi has been organized to recognize scholarship and excellence in education. Those
individuals elected to membership exhibit the ideals of scholarship,
high personal standards, and promise in the teaching and allied
professions recognized by the Society. Undergraduate students (sophomores, juniors, and seniors) are required to have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.5. An
invitation is extended to graduate/credential students who have
obtained an overall grade point average of 3.25 or above, and who have
completed 9 or more quarter hours of Professional Education graduate
courses at Santa Clara University.
Every spring semester, undergraduate and graduate students meeting the
GPA requirement are sent an invitation to become members at the
initiation ceremony.
Upon
joining this organization, an individual remains a member for life with
his/her name recorded permanently in the Society headquarters files. Active membership is maintained through payment of annual dues.
