Pi Alpha Alpha

Pi Alpha Alpha is the national honor society for public administration students. To qualify to join this elite group, you must have completed at least 18 hours of MPA coursework and have a GPA of 3.75 or higher in that coursework. Eligible students are invited to join in the early part of the spring semester.

The ASU Chapter inducts new members in May each year, just before graduation. The induction ceremony is a festive affair, that features food, fun, and the chance to share your accomplishments with family and friends. We hope you will be inspired to join us!
