Unfortunately, we are unable to waive the one-time membership fee, but we encourage you to connect with your local chapter leaders. They may have resources available to assist members in financial need, or they might be able to provide you with an extension to accommodate your situation.
If you are unable to meet the nomination window, even after discussing with your Chapter Leaders, you can still join our National Online Chapter in the future once you have the funds available. You can self-nominate at any time by completing the nomination application on our website.
