Becoming a Member of NCSPP
Membership is held by programs rather than by individuals. Member, Associate Member, and Observer schools select delegates to attend meetings on their behalf.
To Apply for Membership
An online NCSPP application form is available here. The application fee is $50.
Completed applications are reviewed by the Executive Committee at the next NCSPP Membership Meeting. These meetings are held in January and August of each year. Upon review, the committee provides recommendations to the Council at its membership meeting where an applicant institution may be elected by a majority vote.
