National Omicron-Psi Honor Society

Who Are We?

The National Omicron-Psi Honor Society is established specifically for the nontraditional student. Established as a non-profit organization in 1993, we encourage participation in community related activities. Omicron-Psi chapters are located throughout the United States. We recognize the achievements and sacrifices that are made by these students and encourage their continual academic pursuits through scholarships and awards.

The Darwin Foundation governs Omicron-Psi. This Foundation consists of graduates who have been established as exemplary community pillars. Their function is to review and select scholarship recipients.
