Generating Reports for Phi Beta Kappa PBK Eligibility

Generating Reports for Phi Beta Kappa PBK Eligibility

Generating Reports for determining Phi Beta Kappa eligibility - will typically be requested by the Advisor for the Phi Beta Kappa Chapter early in the Spring semester.

The following Informer Reports contribute to the data generated:

Current Students

Calculates the number of PBK credits completed, and the GPA of those credits. Transfer credits are included in the number of PBK credits, but are excluded in calculation of the PBK GPA.

ACAD - PBK Currently Enrolled - reports on courses of the TYPE PBK that students are currently enrolled in

ACAD - World Language for PBK - reports on all world language courses taken by students who have taken any PBK courses at the 203 and 204 level. This report is used for calculating previously completed courses as well as currently enrolled.
