Eligibility for membership in Sigma Beta Delta applies to all students at a non-AACSB, regionally accredited school of business in the United States, who rank in the upper 20 percent of their undergraduate or graduate class. All students enrolled in a regionally accredited doctoral program in business are eligible to join the honor society upon graduation. Generally, undergraduate and graduate students must have completed at least half of their coursework in order to be considered for membership. An offer of membership, once accepted, is a lifetime distinction for high-achieving students of business programs.
