Institutional Membership [Word] [PDF]

Membership dues are required in keeping with the dues structure of the Bylaws.

Eligibility of other out-of-state institutions, whose accrediting association is not under CHEA, shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Association. Both the institutions and the agencies' consideration for membership must be recommended by the Membership Committee, approved by the Board of Directors and by an affirmative two-thirds vote of the voting members and institutional representatives preset at the annual meeting. Membership dues are required in keeping with the dues structure of the Bylaws.
