American National University Alpha of Virginia Chapter:
Delta Epsilon Tau is the premier national honor society for America’s accredited distance learning institutions. Delta Epsilon Tau only places Chapters in those institutions recognized by the Distance Education Accrediting Commission. The purpose of the Society is to encourage and recognize superior student academic achievement, character and leadership. The fact that an individual is elected to membership sets her or him apart from other students and clearly demonstrates a serious commitment to distance education and self-study.
DET Gold Key:
As an added service, each honor student also receives a special congratulatory letter from the President of Delta Epsilon Tau and a narrative about the society. Upon request, outstanding students may also request a letter of reference when seeking employment or other career opportunities.
Recognition Certificate and Honors:
Each outstanding student elected to membership receives a personalized membership certificate. This certificate includes the candidate’s name, distance learning institution, Chapter affiliation, and date of induction. To properly honor this achievement, each certificate also includes the Delta Epsilon Tau Gold Seal of Distinction and Official Crest as seen above.
Selection Process and Criteria:
In order to be selected, students must have a 3.5 GPA or higher, demonstrate leadership and service among peers, and be within two terms of graduation, or are a recent graduate. Nominees are selected from those meeting these criteria selected by the faculty.
Membership Privileges and Honors:
Delta Epsilon Tau Members receive the DET Gold Key, Congratulatory Letter, and Honor Society Narrative.
