Become a Member
ACUI's institutional membership is focused on providing the education, resources, and networking your campus needs. There are no additional fees; everyone on your campus is a member!
This means that any professional, student, or faculty member on your campus have access to ACUI's benefits, including full access to those top rated by our members: online learning, Bulletin, and networking.
Effective for 2022, ACUI is proud to now offer two tiers of membership for campuses, each with benefits that will meet the needs of your entire campus. Find details about each option below.
Full Campus Membership
Full campus membership is for those institutions that seek to provide complete access to ACUI's many benefits and resources to everyone on campus. Select the drop downs below to see a full list of member benefits.
With the new membership structure, our 2022 member campuses will receive:
- One campus pass to a premier roundtable
- Two passes to thought leadership content offerings
- One campus pass to the College Union and Leadership Foundations content package
These added complimentary benefits bring your campus more than $700 in savings!
