Membership Dues

MEMBERSHIP TYPES & DUES

SCUP offers individual memberships. They are non-transferable and last one year.

SCUP does not offer institutional or company memberships (in other words, the university itself is not a member), but the society does offer institutions and companies the opportunity to purchase "groups of individual memberships" at a discount per person. For institutions, the dues are based on Full-Time Enrollment (FTE) as reported in the Higher Education Directory. These institutional and corporate group memberships are transferable but the group itself only lasts one year from the time it was created.
