Certificate Chapter Order Instructions

1. This order form is for chapter orders of membership certificates. Single orders may be placed using the Phi Beta Kappa Order Form for Keys and Certificates. Chapter orders for keys should be compiled on the Phi Beta Kappa Order Form for Chapters.
 
2. All certificates, of heavy parchment paper 8.5" x 11" in size, are engrossed with the official name of the chapter; e.g. Alpha of Virginia at the College of William and Mary. Certificate frames are matted with walnut finish, 11" x 14" in size.
 
3. Engrossed certificates are like the facsimile shown above. Unengrossed certificates are available to chapters only and do not include the member's name and date of initiation. Chapters that prefer to have engrossing done locally may order unengrossed certificates by entering the name of the chapter in the "Name" column. On orders for engrossed certificates, enter each member's name as it should appear on the certificate. There is no limit on the number of letters in a name for engrossing purposes.
 
4. The month, day, and year to be engrossed will ordinarily be the date of initiation. But the date of election may be substituted if the member is to be initiated by another chapter and the initiation date is not yet known.
 
5. Chapter orders are shipped U.P.S. A suitable street address (not a P.O. Box) must be provided for the U.P.S. delivery.
