Membership Information
Membership in Chi Sigma Iota, as specified in the Bylaws, is by chapter invitation to both students and graduates of counselor education programs. Students must have completed at least one semester of full-time graduate coursework in a counselor education degree program, have earned a grade point average of 3.5 or better on a 4.0 system, and be recommended for membership in CSI by the chapter.
Faculty, alumni, and professional members shall have met the overall G.P.A. requirement as graduates of a counselor education program and be recommended to CSI by the chapter. The primary identity of these persons shall be as professional counselors including evidence of a state or national credential as a professional counselor.
Membership Application Processing
Membership application verification is completed by the Chapter Faculty Advisors and a chapter check for all new members is sent to CSI Headquaters. Applications are processed by CSI as quickly as possible upon receipt of all the needed information from the chapter (usually within 10 days).
New applicants should contact their chapter officers or Chapter Faculty Advisor regarding any questions related to processing of their application as chapters send all their nominees verifications and one check to headquarters simultaneously. Often, chapters wait several weeks before forwarding their materials to Headquarters. As a consequence, Headquarters staff are unable to be of immediate assistance in these cases.

CSI members wanting to change their chapter affiliation may do so by completing the on-line Membership Transfer Form.
