How to Apply for Intertel Membership:

The only criteria for membership is a score at or above the 99th percentile level on a qualifying and valid supervised test of intelligence. To apply, send your name, address, and evidence of a qualifying test score or other appropriate documentation, along with $10.00 evaluation fee, to:

Intertel Acceptance Committee
P.O. Box 1083
Tulsa, OK 74101-1083

With your application, you should enclose evidence of a qualifying score on a standard supervised test of intelligence. This evidence cannot be returned to you, but legible photocopies are acceptable. If the scores are maintained by a university or other service that cannot provide the results directly to you, request that they forward the evidence to this Committee, and attach a copy of your request to your application.

Please do not ask us to obtain the evidence for you. It is your responsibility to provide it to the committee.

Of course, any test score you submit will be kept completely confidential.

Intertel does not provide testing services. If you have no evidence, and believe that you might qualify for membership, a supervised test may be given by a local university, psychological clinic, or private psychologist. Before taking such a test, please be sure it is one of those accepted by Intertel.

You will be notified of the results of the Acceptance Committee's evaluation of your application. If you are found to be eligible for membership, you will be invited to join by sending in the dues payable for the current year. If you have any questions, write to the Acceptance Committee at the address given.

Intertel Qualifying Test Scores:

Listed below are some widely-used standard measures of intelligence and their qualifying score for Intertel membership. These scores have been carefully evaluated and may not be waived. Some other tests may also be accepted, subject to individual appraisal. If you have any doubt about the acceptability of a test, you may write to the Acceptance Committee for guidance. The judgement of the committee is final.

Note: No self-administered tests will be accepted.
