    Enter Your BYU ID

    The university will place a Phi Kappa Phi notation by your name in the graduation programs as long as the university records have you properly identified as a Phi Kappa Phi member. We will do our best to get everyone correctly marked, but it makes life much simpler if we have your student ID so the Records Office can update your record by student ID rather than by name.
