Hello Geographers!


Apply for Gamma Theta Upsilon (GTU), an International Honor Society in Geography! Join GTU to further your study and interest in the geographical sciences and to strengthen professional training through academic experiences outside the classroom. Membership is earned through superior scholarship and therefore it is an honor and a professional distinction. GTU also offers involvement with faculty/staff in the department, eligibility for several scholarships, and nice swag to wear at graduation. The application is very easy to complete with your basic information.

This opportunity is open to students in their 4th semester of study, working towards a Geographical Sciences or related degree or minor, with a minimum 3.3 GPA cumulative and in all Geographical Sciences classes. 

The Geographical Sciences Department will cover a portion of the $40 induction fee. We expect to know more about fees in the next coming weeks. A virtual initiation ceremony will be held the week of September 21st or 28th.

If you applied last Spring, you do not need to re-apply. Please just send an email with an updated GPA and any other changes to your application information.

Deadline is September 18, 2020 11:59pm

If you would like to learn more, go to https://gammathetaupsilon.org or email umdgtu@gmail.com. 


Thank you!
