NSCS is a highly selective, national, non-profit honors organization. Founded in 1994, NSCS recognizes undergraduate students who excel academically. The Society was established on the principle that with scholarship comes a responsibility to develop leadership and a duty to perform service.

“NSCS provides the opportunity for students, like Amie, to be recognized for their outstanding academic accomplishments early in their college experience,” said Steve Loflin, NSCS Executive Director. “Amie will also have the opportunity to join other high achieving college students in developing leadership skills and a sense of civic responsibility.”
