| Phi Kappa Theta - Reporting NEW Initiates
Instructions:
• Certificate of Initiation with correct reporting procedures.
Correct Processing of Initiations
2006-2007 Academic Year
The following must be submitted to the Executive Offices to ensure timely processing of Initiations:
• $170.00 per Initiate (additional $75.00 per Initiate if ordering the crown set pearl badge)
• $49.50 per Alumnus Initiate (plus Alumnus Initiate form)
• Certificate of Initiation including Date of Initiation (with correct spellings)*
If ANY of the above items are missing, processing of Initiations will be delayed until all appropriate paperwork/fees are received. Badges and Membership Certificates will not be ordered or shipped to the Chapter.
1. Collect the initiation fee of $170.00 per Initiate PRIOR to the Initiation Ceremony. Send in the individual checks to the Executive Offices (with Certificate of Initiation). The only exception to this is when an individual pays in cash. In such a case deposit the cash into the chapter account and write a check - making sure to put the individual’s name in the memo section of the check.
Article III, Section 1 of the National By-Laws specifically states that: “An undergraduate may not participate in any of the Initiation proceedings until his Initiation fee has been paid to the chapter treasurer. This fee is the property of the International Fraternity, and the treasurer is guilty of misapplication of funds to commingle this fee in the chapter accounts.”
2. Prior to Initiation: an Associate Member card, form, and all fees must have been submitted to the Executive Offices. This information should have been submitted at the beginning of the Associate Member education period and should already be on file in our offices. See “Correct Processing of Associate Members” for details.
3. A $10.00 fine per Initiate is assessed for late reporting, payment, or paperwork (10 days after ceremony). Please submit all paperwork & payments within 10 days of the Initiation ceremony to avoid any late fees.
*The information provided on the Certificate of Initiation is used in ordering membership certificates and wallet cards. If incorrect information is provided, there will be a reorder charge of $15.00 per certificate. Please have your new Initiates double check the spelling of their names!
