Psi Alphaopens in new window started the year stronger than ever, with new chapters continuing to join around the world. With 166 chapters, 7,715 members, and representation in six countries, each chapter shares a common mission to enhance students’ understanding of the scientific study of psychology and provide meaningful academic and professional opportunities.
One of the newest benefits available to Psi Alpha members is a complimentary APA affiliate membership for the remainder of 2026. This opportunity provides students with access to valuable professional resources, scholarly publications, networking connections, and career development tools. It offers an excellent introduction to the broader psychology community and supports students as they explore graduate education and career pathways within the field. Psi Alpha extends its sincere appreciation to APA for making this opportunity possible.
Psi Alpha also offers a variety of scholarships and awards for students, chapters, and advisors. Updated information about these opportunities will be posted on the website in the coming months as applications open. In addition, Psi Alpha regularly shares scholarship opportunities from external organizations to further support member success and achievement. The Psychology Honor Societies Collaboration Map continues to expand, as well. This interactive map highlights Psi Alpha, Psi Beta, and Psi Chi chapters worldwide. It serves as a valuable resource for students and advisors seeking to connect with nearby chapters and foster collaboration. The map is also beneficial for students transitioning to new institutions, as it allows them to determine whether their next school hosts a psychology honor society. Psi Alpha staff members work diligently to keep this resource current. We encourage you to explore the mapopens in new window.
