Founded in 1976 at Manhattan College in Riverdale, New York, Theta Alpha Kappa is the only national honor society serving the needs of those involved in the study of religion and/or theology at both the baccalaureate and post-baccalaureate levels of higher education. Honoring excellence in these academic fields is its primary purpose, and it currently hosts over 200 local chapters throughout the United States at institutions both large and small, public and private. Sacred Heart's Alpha Zeta Upsilon chapter was founded in 2003. Acceptance requirements include better than a 3.5 GPA in the major and better than a 3.25 GPA overall. There are requirements limiting the number of courses taken outside Sacred Heart.
