How Much Does it Cost?
  
  The initial membership dues are $55. This fee includes national and chapter dues; a subscription to our national journal; a membership certificate, pin, opportunities for scholarships and fellowships; and recognition during the graduation commencement..

Once initiated into the Society, one always remains a member of Phi Kappa Phi. You will be classified as an active member and will continue to receive both the Phi Kappa Phi Forum magazine and the Honor Cord E-Zines as long as you pay annually the national dues and chapter dues. You will be classified as an inactive member if you do not keep up those dues. You are urged, of course, to maintain active membership, not only as a means of personal fulfillment, but also as a way of helping to sustain the prestige and to support the activities of the Society.
