2025 is the ACHS Centennial Anniversary! Stay tuned for more details coming soon on how you can join the celebrations

2025 ACHS Annual Conference: save the date! January 30 - February 1, 2025 Hotel Kansas City, Kansas City, Missouri

 

The Association of College Honor Societies (ACHS) is the organization honor societies join when they want their society certified by a neutral body, want to collaborate with other honor societies to promote best practices in recognizing and promoting excellence in scholarship, leadership, service, and research, and seek to continually maintain the highest standards by providing annual reports and undergoing regular re-certification.

Founded in 1925, ACHS is the only certifying agency for college and university honor societies. ACHS sets the standards for organizational excellence and scholastic eligibility, as well as assuring member participation in governance so that the interests of individual members are advanced.

Honor Societies AND ACHS

The mission of ACHS is to build a visibly-cohesive community of national and international honor societies that promotes the values of higher education; fosters excellence in scholarship, leadership, service, and research; and adheres to the standards of honor society excellence.
 

 

 

The Association shall act as the coordinating agency for collegiate honor societies; provide facilities for the consideration of matters of mutual interest; define honor societies of the several types; cooperate with college and university faculties and administrative officers in developing and maintaining high standards and useful functions; and collect, publish, and distribute information and data.
