Membership Levels
There are three levels of membership within the Society: General, Laureate, and Distinguished Service. Members are initiated through a system of Campus and Field Chapters or through special board-conducted initiations. The latter are known as “Members-at-Large” while the first two groups are considered “Chapter Members.” All individuals are “General Members” upon initiation.
Consistent with the honor society’s purpose of career-long and lifelong service to members, all general members who maintain active status are eligible for two higher membership levels. These are Laureate Membership and Distinguished Service Membership. Other Epsilon Pi Tau members may recommend persons with a record of professional accomplishments for these honors.

Laureate Membership
Members become eligible for Laureate Membership at least five years following their initiation. Members must have been an active member (paid dues) for at least five years prior to nomination to be considered for the citation. The members' Regional Director approves the Laureate Citation.

Distinguished Service Membership
Distinguished Service Membership is the highest recognition that active members may receive. Criteria call for professional performance superior to that of the preceding category. The performance is also sustained over a longer period of time. Members must have been an active member (paid dues) for at least five years prior to the nomination. The award must be approved by a vote of the Board of Directors.
