Recognizing and promoting the academic excellence and involvement of Transfer students

The Tau Sigma National Honor Society is an academic honor society designed to recognize and promote academic excellence and involvement of transfer students. The academic society was started in 1998 by Dr. Lee Colquitt of Auburn University in Alabama. Auburn University continues to be the national headquarters for the organization. The chapter for the University of North Texas was established in the spring of 2001. Each semester the Transfer Center recognizes new full-time transfer students who receive a 3.5 or higher in their first semester at UNT by inducting them into the Kappa chapter. UNT was Tau Sigma's 10th established chapter. During the 2008-2009 academic year, the Transfer Center inducted 368 transfer students into the honor society, a 25% growth from the previous year.

In addition to being a member of the national organization, UNT students have the opportunity to participate in the Tau Sigma organization on our campus. Leadership within the organization plans programs for membership throughout the year. New membership is sworn in at each spring induction ceremony.

The UNT Tau Sigma executive board hosts general body meetings, socials and community service events throughout the year.
