Nursing Honor Society

Omega Delta is the Pace University chapter of Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing. The purposes of Sigma Theta Tau are to recognize the development of leadership qualities, foster high professional standards, encourage creative work, and strengthen commitment on the part of individuals to the ideas and purposes of the profession of nursing.

Candidates for membership are selected on the basis of superior scholastic achievement. Undergraduates halfway through the program, in the upper 35% of their class, or graduate students a quarter of the way through the Master's program with a 3.5 CQPA or higher are eligible. Outstanding community leaders in nursing are also eligible. Student standing is reviewed by the individual school's chapter Faculty Counselor and eligible students are invited in writing to consider membership.

For further information, contact Dr. Stephanie Allen.
