Beta Gamma Sigma
Beta Gamma Sigma is the international honor society for AACSB-accredited business schools, recognizing students who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement in the study of business and management. Membership is by invitation only and is based solely on academic performance.
Eligible students include:
- Undergraduate students who rank in the top 10% of their class after completing at least half of their sophomore (second) year
- Master's students who rank in the top 20% of their program after completing at least half of their degree requirements
- Doctoral candidates who have successfully defended their dissertation
Students eligible for induction are those graduating during the current academic year, including students completing their degrees in the summer, fall, or spring terms.
Students are eligible for membership once during their academic program, and invitations are extended annually. Eligible students are selected based on Beta Gamma Sigma's academic criteria and are invited individually by the GW School of Business Dean's Office during the spring semester. Invitations include details about membership and the annual Beta Gamma Sigma induction ceremony and celebration.
Students must submit their graduation application no later than the university’s application deadline to be considered for induction into Beta Gamma Sigma.
