The Golden Key International Honour Society was founded in 1977 to recognise academic achievement among college and university students in all disciplines. The registered non-profit Society currently has nearly 350 chapters at colleges and universities in six countries: Australia, Canada, Malaysia, New Zealand, South Africa and the United States. In reference to its international presence, the Society chooses to use the spelling "honour" despite its American origins.
Only the top 15% of undergraduate students are invited to join.
The society offers various scholarships and awards to its members, along with a variety of other opportunities, both academic and career.
