Hello,

I’m pleased to share that you have been nominated to join our chapter of The National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS) based on your GPA and the number of credit hours that you have completed.

As Chapter Advisor, I have seen the positive impact this organization has had on our students since 2015, including developing leadership and communication skills, networking, and giving students an edge in the employment market.  Members also have access to over $400,000 in scholarships awarded annually, an exclusive NSLS job board, and discounts on computers, textbooks, grad school prep courses, and more.

We encourage you to accept your nomination and attend Orientation in September.  I look forward to seeing you there to learn more about your goals.  In the meantime, I invite you to join us for an informative Zoom call where we will delve into the rich history and core values of The National Society of Leadership and Success, as well as explore the exciting initiatives of our chapter on campus.

Why did I get invited?

Nomination criteria for the Fall 2024 semester is having a cumulative GPA between a 3.0 and a 3.5 and having sophomore or junior standing by credit hours completed and only a select number of students are invited to join.

What do I have to do to become an inducted member?

Our five-step program takes approximately 10 hours over the course of the semester at your pace.
