This form will give us all the information we need to set up everything on our end. After you submit your answer, our team will start working and within two weeks we will reach out to the designated Chapter President to let them know that things are ready for the next step.

FILL OUT THE CHAPTER INFORMATION FORM

After receiving an email from our staff indicating everything has been set up, access our membership portal and get your members officially registered under your chapter’s name!
We recommend each member uses their own personal email to create their account. You can get more information on our membership page.

ACCESS OUR MEMBERSHIP PORTAL

You can also send an email to mailbox@aias.org to request bulk registration for more than 3 students!

In the same email, you will get access to your official AIAS Chapter email account. This is an essential part to get official communications from our Headquarters, get connected with other chapters and resources, and participate in our Council of Presidents. Additionally, this account can be used as a virtual workshop to build your chapter and communicate with others!

Chapter Dues are one of the main responsibilities of an AIAS Chapter, consisting of an annual payment from the chapter as a whole that help fund the organization’s insurance policy. Chapter Dues are a requirement to be in Good Standing.

 

LEARN MORE AND PAY

*Remember that High School and International chapters do not pay Chapter Dues.

With that, you are ready to get started! Reach out to the director in your region or quad to catch up with everything happenning in your area and get one-on-one support as you build up your community.

• Chapter Starter Pack: Everything you need for your new chapter
