At Drury University, members have earned at least a 3.4 GPA in history classes and a 3.3 GPA in their overall university average; members must have completed twelve credit hours in history. Initiation is only offered once per year, in the fall. Should you join, consider listing the membership on your resume to demonstrate strong academic achievement to potential employers.

Phi Alpha Theta is separate from History Club, which is a departmental organization that anyone can join. In contrast, Phi Alpha Theta is an honorary club that requires a GPA specific standard that is applicable to History majors and minors.
