Phi Theta Kappa
The Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society (PTK) is the international honor society of students attending two-year colleges.
Cost and financial aid are major barriers for transfer students, especially if they are paying for their own education. There are nearly 800 four-year college partners who provide $46 million in scholarships just for PTK members. The average transfer scholarship offered by partner colleges is $2,500 a year!
Students at the Mississippi State Penitentiary became the first incarcerated individuals in the state of Mississippi to be inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa Beta Omega Beta Chapter, which began in 2023.
Initial inductees during the Spring 2023 ceremony with Phi Theta Kappa President and CEO Dr. Lynn Tincher-Ladner.
