Membership

Criteria

College

The membership criteria are: 1) the student must have transferred in with at least one year's worth of academic credits, 2) the student must have completed, at your institution, the number of hours representing one full term (typically 12 semester hours), and 3) the student achieved EITHER a 3.5 OR were in the top 20% of ALL incoming transfers during the term in which they transfer or when they complete courses equivalent to a full term.

The institution must be 4-year (accredited by a regional accrediting association) and we normally recommend that a college/university have at least 300 incoming transfer students each year in order to establish a chapter.

Lifetime membership dues typically range from $50 to $65, depending upon the local dues amount.  National dues are set at $40 with the remaining portion going to support your local chapter.
