Steps for Chartering a New Beta Club

Non-Public schools please read this first.

  1. School administrators select a Beta Club sponsor, which may be an administrator, counselor, teacher or librarian.

  2. Determine, within the National Beta Club requirements, the school’s specific criteria – GPA, commendable character and attitude, etc.

  3. Compile a list of students who meet the established requirements.   A minimum of 5 members is required to charter a Beta Club but there is no maximum number.

  4. When you have compiled that list of students you will invite to join, call the National Beta Club office (1-800-845-8281) to request free invitational materials.   These include congratulatory notes for the parents, an invitation to the student to join the club, and a brochure containing facts about the National Beta Club. Send the invitations home with the students along with a notification of deadlines for membership acceptance.

  5. Collect dues and prepare the application form to send to the National Beta Club office. Complete all requested information and obtain necessary signatures on the application. Mail the application, along with one school check ($13.00 per member) to this address:

  6. The National Beta Club
    151 Beta Club Way
    Spartanburg, SC 29306-3012

  7. After sending in your application and fees, plan an induction ceremony. Please allow at least four weeks for processing of your application to ensure the materials for your new club arrive in time. Also, allow for unexpected postal delays and time for certificates to be signed by the administrator and sponsor once you receive them.
