Institutional Membership
Any college or university that presents a general program for the cultural and recreational life of the student body as a primary activity is invited to join the Association. Institutional membership is based on a calendar year with an annual renewal date of Jan. 1 or Aug. 1; the date is determined at the origination of membership. The dues structure for institutional members is calculated on a matrix that combines institutional enrollment (full-time equivalent) and the number of professional staff.
When an institution joins ACUI, the institution receives a number of individual memberships that can be given to professional staff members, vice presidents, chancellors, presidents, or boards of trustees. Although anyone on your entire campus can take advantage of ACUI membership benefits such as member-priced publications, event registrations, and discounted purchases on furniture, fixtures, and equipment through ACUI Procure, the individuals on your membership roster also:
| Receive their own copy of The Bulletin magazine
Are entitled to vote for members of the Board of Trustees
Are eligible to hold office or serve as a member of the Board of Trustees
Appear in the online member directory
Receive communications sent by ACUI

ACUI members receive benefits and savings not available to nonmember institutions. The sum of these can far outweigh the monetary cost of your membership. The following is an example of the cost-saving benefits available and how membership can pay for itself.
