Membership in Beta Gamma Sigma is the highest recognition a business student anywhere in the world can receive in a baccalaureate or post-baccalaureate business program.

USF St. Petersburg has been a chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma since 2006. Students who are invited to be members have a minimum Overall GPA of 3.5, completed at least 30 credit hours at USF and meet one of the following categories:

in the upper 10 percent of their junior class,
in the upper 10 percent of their senior class, or
in the upper 20 percent of their Master's class upon their graduating semester.

There is no service requirement, and only a one-time fee of $95.00 for a Lifetime Membership. The annual induction ceremony is held before Spring Commencement for those accepting membership during that academic year.

Including membership to Beta Gamma Sigma on a resume lets future employers know the level of a student's academic achievement. Other benefits include an online community that allows members access to a variety of services, an alumni network, the annual student leadership forum, and the Beta Gamma Sigma Scholarship Program.
