  • Phi Theta Kappa is an organization that is centralized around four themes: scholarship, leadership, service and fellowship.

    To qualify to become a member, you must:

    • Be an actively enrolled student at Cambridge Campus
    • Have completed at least 12 credits at or above the 1000 level
    • Have a cumulative GPA of 3.25 or higher at the time of application

    Once you qualify to join, you will be notified by email about three weeks into the beginning of the semester (usually in September or February). There is $65 one-time membership fee to join.

    After you join PTK, you may choose your level of involvement. You may be an official member, which is a member who has registered with PTK. This will enable you to receive a special notation on your transcript, honorary regalia at graduation and access to exclusive scholarships. At the time your degree is posted, if your cumulative GPA is 3.0 or higher on your degree audit, PTK will be noted on your official transcript in the degree area. You may also choose to become an active member, which is an official member who attends PTK meetings, works on PTK scholarly projects, and attends PTK service events/projects. This is a great extracurricular to add to your resume!

    For more information, contact PTK advisor Angela Vena.

  • Joining Phi Theta Kappa is a life-changing experience, and it's wonderful that you're interested. Joining opens a door to $90 million in scholarship opportunities to continue your education. Besides the monetary benefits, Phi Theta Kappans are able to lead their own campus and college toward improvement. Through scholarship, leadership, service, and fellowship, members in Phi Theta Kappa change their world.

    The requirements for membership in our chapter, are as follows:

    1. Be an actively enrolled student on the Coon Rapids Campus.
    2. Have completed at least 12 credits at or above the 1000 level.
    3. Have a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher at the time of application.

Jennifer Christensen will send you an email invitation with a passcode to join online. Invitations are emailed to eligible students about 3 weeks into the fall and spring semester. There is an $80 one time membership fee to join.

    When accepting membership, you will have the option to purchase your graduation regalia through the Phi Theta Kappa website, but you can wait. Phi Theta Kappa regalia can also be earned or purchased near the time of graduation on the Coon Rapids campus.

    "Business is one of the best programs Anoka-Ramsey Community College has to offer, and it is also possible to receive your bachelor's degree on campus through its partnership with universities in the area.

    TRIO SSS jump started my academic career and ensured I got the most out of my time at Anoka-Ramsey. As a first-generation, non-traditional student, I was unsure of the logistics to obtaining a degree and frightened of the uncertainty. My TRIO SSS Advisor helped answer all of my questions, ensured I was taking the correct courses for my degree, made me aware of opportunities available on- and off-campus and aided in building my confidence. I will forever be grateful to the dedication my TRIO SSS Advisor has given me and the growth I have gained in the process."

    "Anyone of any age wanting to go to college to pursue a degree or general education can come to Anoka-Ramsey and expect a great education and a great time.

    When you apply for a scholarship, you will likely get one. I received two scholarships my freshman year: The Otto Bremer Scholarship for $1,500 and the Presidential Scholarship for $3,000."

    "I chose Anoka-Ramsey for three reasons: Affordability, transferability and location. It is the most affordable tuition in the state, and one of the lowest in the country. I want to transfer to the University of Minnesota’s Bio-chemical program, and my courses will transfer. And it is located on the Mississippi.

    The best things about Anoka-Ramsey, though, are the great resources-the Academic Support Center, the Advising Center, the Counseling Center have nice staff committed to your success."
