Some students interested in joining Psi Chi have a 2.9 cumulative GPA but their psychology GPA is more than 3.0. Can we accept those students?
Students must first and foremost rank in the top 35% of their graduating class, which is typically 3.2 or higher. The top 35% should be calculated for each graduating class, encompassing all majors and minors at your institution. Accepting students with a 3.0 cumulative GPA is only acceptable when the top 35% falls below a 3.0. To answer the question, no, those students do not qualify for Psi Chi membership.
