Chapter Affiliation Fee

Each chapter pays an annual affiliation fee of $65.00, funds that support all of the Society opportunities such as scholarships and grants. All chapters are emailed reminder notices prior to the respective due dates.

What is My Anniversary Date?

Chapters chartered before June 1, 2010, have anniversary dates of June 1 of each year. For chapters chartered or rechartered after June 1, 2010, the Chapter Affiliation Fee is due on their charter anniversary date, established when the charter is approved. Lead Chapter Advisors receive fee reminders 60 and 30 days prior to their due date as well as at the same intervals if the due date has passed.

Any chapter not paying the annual affiliation fee within 90 after the anniversary due day moves to inactive status and automatically incurs a late fee of $20. Chapters inactive for one full calendar year from their anniversary date are suspended and are required to pay $100 to reactivate. New anniversary dates are established for suspended chapters once the reactivation fee is received.
