General Information
Beta Alpha Psi is the national scholastic and professional accounting fraternity. The objectives of Beta Alpha Psi include the promotion of the study and practice of accounting; the provision of opportunities for self-development and association among members and practicing accountants; and the encouragement of a sense of ethical, social, and public responsibilities.
The Auburn Chapter of Beta Alpha Psi has been on campus for 28 years.
The chapter serves as both an honorary and a service organization.
One of our many service projects is the participation in the Adopt-A-Mile
program. In addition to serving the community and university, the
Epsilon Omicron Chapter provides an opportunity for students to
meet prospective employers. Chapter meetings are designed to foster
an interest in current career topics presented by accounting professionals.
Pledge Responsibilities
There are 6 chapter meetings per semester. The meetings are scheduled for every other Tuesday night during fall and spring semesters for one hour only from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. Various socials and other events are also held each semester. A schedule of this year's events will be discussed in detail during the initial pledge meeting.
A one-time initiation fee of $100.00 is required for all pledges. Pledges are required to have an Auburn e-mail address. This facilitates announcements and our getting in contact with you when needed.
