There are many great organizations dedicated to helping high achieving students thrive while in high school and NHS is a great organization. While you didn’t have to pay for your NHS membership, your high school did to the NHS national organization.
Torch & Laurel has a different approach than NHS and the good news is you can be a member of both organizations. T&L connects members to other T&L members not only in your school or your town/city, but in your state and around the country.
T&L members can also connect directly with a college student mentor to help with the college application process. No other high school honor society can offer the level of integration and support that T&L can through its relationship with The National Society of Collegiate Scholars. There are many other benefits to a Torch & Laurel membership that you won’t get anywhere else. Check out our Membership Benefits.
The Society of Torch & Laurel basic membership is $29. The education investment is as low as possible to make this recognition opportunity affordable while also providing benefits that will have a meaningful impact on your future.
For members who are interested in more high-impact services to enhance the basic membership, Torch & Laurel offers a Regular membership for $79 and a Premium Membership for $149.
To learn more about the membership benefits of the different tiers, you can view our Membership Benefits.
If you are unable to pay the $29 membership fee due to financial hardship, we offer scholarships to ensure that no person is denied access to these life-changing benefits. To request a scholarship for your membership, please visit our Member Assistance Scholarship form.
